It really depends on how close you are to the runway.
Our 3-flat is
DIRECTLY under the approach path to runway 10C/28C at ORD, with planes flying overhead every several minutes, but because we're 10 miles from the end of the runway, the planes are still like 2,000+ feet in the air as they fly over us and they aren't really all that noisy/disruptive.
The brown line el trains that rumble down the alley in back of our building every couple minutes are an order of magnitude louder.
Now, if you're a 1/4 mile from the end of the runway and the planes are flying over your home at less than 100 feet, like the bunaglows around MDW, that's an entirely different story.
