With a 2 year old and a 3 month old, I have become quite comfortable sleeping with 33dB noise suppressor foam ear plugs.

Almost as loud is the flight of aerobatic AT-6s that are also here plus the drop plane for the Golden Knights, also in the show. I much prefer the sound of the AT-6 over the jet
Ned said:Yep, those Hornets are really loud. I prefer the sound of the old P&W rotaries
Wendy said:Even $60/month wouldnt make up for the noise for me. But it sure would be an option for a place to stay while you sightsee the LA area.

However, for the last couple of months we have had a FOREIGN AIR fORCE flying in and out. The Singapore Air Force leased a part of Mountain Home Air Force Base for the next 25 years, recently, and will be training from there. They will be using a nearby, desert, gunnery and bombing range. They take off and land at BOI, occasionally.
Yep, they're loud - really loud!
I have mixed feelings. Great for our local economy. But, those foriegn markings give an old Air Force guy a bit of the creeps. No Stars and Bars on those birds! That makes them even louder!! :
