Yea. Similar. We were about 7 miles ATCF from EWR directly in line with EWR Approach and departure depending on the wind after the Feds removed the "over the water" noise abating approach to save fuel. We even once had an emergency fuel dump over our neighborhood. Now we get extra loud leaf blowers and trimmers and lawn mowers at least 5 days a week and it's like music to our ears compared to that.
