His home address on his registration is nowhere near our area.

The pilot may have nothing to do with the area. He probably had someone on board that made him take that flight plan. Friend/Family in the jumpseat. As long as he maintained the elevation required, not shit you can do about it.

Seems like yall are getting butthurt over nothing.

I doubt that 200 ft (if true) over a residential area is acceptable.

Guessing a cul de sac doesn't count as a congested area, so 500 feet above ground is the minimum. That said, a plane can be above 500 feet and still look pretty low.

After reading it again, it might have been a student (or instructor with student) picking a bad place to practice an engine out simulation.

I think a lot of the planes up in the air are rentals.

Also could have been power/gas/etc checking on their lines. Or DEA looking for pot.

I don't live far off from the flight path to PDK (2nd busiest airport behind hartsfield-jackson-(insert politician name)-atlanta airport) and the jet noise doesn't even bother me. Only plane I really hear is a biplane that I see so much I memorized the tail number. Also a WW2 B-17 bomber that sounds so damn sexy whenever it flies to PDK about once or twice a year. It is a loud beast that must have been horrifying back in WW2 with 1000s of them coming down on you. Sounds sexy to me.
