I'm under a flight path in Brisbane, yeah those freight flights are surprisingly loud compared to the general traffic. For a lot of the dedicated domestic freight flights where I am (I assume it's similar in Tassie), they tend to use old 737-300s and -400s which sound about as loud to me as a much larger 777-300ER flying over, and louder than modern wide-bodies like the 787-9 and A350. Crazy how far engine technology has come!

Also, at that time, it's super quite except for those freighters.

Oh, those 2am freighter flights! I'm in a super quiet area of Trevallyn, which makes those couple of flights quite loud. Also, Launceston has a similar set of runway lights, that you drive under, and look very close to a house.

The 2am flight reminds me in Riverside that it's time to head to bed!

I would not have picked there of all places but the quiet nights there would make for a good background of silence to emphasise the flights.
Have you considered Davenport? :D No flights but endless shipping going on.

I like visiting Devonport, would be orright if ya could get a good job there.
Now I'm in Launceston a bit further from the airport, the 2am Toll Freight flight is definitely something I notice.
