Default Does anyone know if the airport flight pattern recently changed?

I live in the whitehall/steel creeke area and bought a new home moving in May 2011. Recently, I noticed alot more of overhead airplane noise. I travel alot so I'm not home during the week, but this week I was home and noticed airplanes flying overhead about every two minutes and they are loud! I really think it has just gotten worse over the last couple weeks - does anyone know if something recently changed with flight patterns? Is it temporary, or do I need to learn to block this noise out? Can I complain to someone?

Absolutely! I live in Indian Land and one flew over today that sounded like it was about to land in my backyard. It was so loud that I went outside to see what was going on. It has progressively gotten worse and worse since they opened the new runway. And the thing that I object to most is that the noise goes until 11 or 11:30 at night sometimes. Ridiculous.
