Personally I'm tired of my house being buzzed by aircraft @ full throttle in the early hours of the morning - waking my butt up @ 6 am (the 30 mins I lose is just terrible!) AVGAS planes (non jets) don't have mufflers....and it's my opinion none of them should ever fly under 3,000 ft AGL except when landing/taking off.
I don't think the laser rangefinder works that far, but avoid the cockpit because that would be a federal violation. I really,
really doubt that the airplanes over your house are below 500 ft. And I can't think of a single production GA aircraft model that doesn't have a muffler. Also, many, if not most pilots fly over 3000 ft AGL, but for short hops it's not unusual for them to be between 1000 ft and 3000 ft. AGL. Are you going to pay for the extra fuel burn to climb to 3000 ft only to begin descending again?
