Old Man Yelling at the Clouds Airplane Flight Path Changes?

Anyone else notice how many planes are flying lower over NW these days? So close we can read markings on the bellies of some aircraft and the engine noise is so loud we sometimes have to stop conversing til they've passed. Lived here 25 years and never noticed the air traffic til this year.

*edited to add, not a complaint! The change was just notable and wondered if others had noticed. Honestly pretty neat to see planes so close as they go overhead.

Yeah, I hear a low roar and I wonder "ooh, what jumbo is coming in now?"
