So I guess the Vermont Air National Guard is celebrating their 60th anniversary this weekend by having the Air Force Thunderbirds do a little air show. How do I know this? Their F16s are presently buzzing about the skies just over my head in little formations of 4 and 5 planes. They've been doing this each afternoon for the last three days and I'll admit, the first day it was kind of cool, even though it happened in the middle of a VCAM production and the fighters are VERY LOUD. Now I'm over it and I'm getting annoyed. These planes fly maybe 100 feet over the studio and are extremely loud. And it's not a gradual build up of noise, it's sudden and explosive. We're a production studio and as such we're pretty sensitive to outside noise. You know, because we use microphones and stuff. These fighters are interrupting us every time they fly over head, which happens about once per minute for a period of an hour or so for the last three afternoons. I'm about ready to call the Burlington police and lodge a noise complaint against the Air Force. I get it, you're doing an air show this weekend. You fly around in tight formation. It's very impressive. Now please go away.
