None of the above

Depends. I work across the street from the World Trade Center, so I really don't like the sound of low flying aircraft when I'm there. Our building management is very good at letting us know when these things will happen though. We get e-mails that say "Low Flying Helicopter, etc. IT WILL BE LOUD."

As an aviation nut and plane-spotter, I love it.

As long as they are not flying low because they are crashing.

A low flying plane about to land is fascinating.
A low flying plane in an unusual setting would frighten me

I grew up and still live by or on a military base. I am use to it. Its when I do not see them that I get worried.

Not if it's in a landing pattern I'm used to .... but once in awhile one comes through unexpectedly low and makes me hold my breath.

I try not to make a big deal about it but often I do get a sinking feeling when I see a plane flying lower then I am used to.

I live a few miles from the Warren Grove Air Force Base in New Jersey and they fighter jets are always overhead. The even set the pine barrens on fire a couple of years ago and some people lost their homes. When I hear them I think of that fire but now they set into place new guidelines when they fly so I've gotten used to them again.

We get quite a few of them, I'm somewhat indifferent on the matter.

I live near an airbase!

If one can swim it doesn't matter how deep the water is, hopefully the same is true of flying!

I live close to several Airports and Air Force Bases, so Low Flying Planes is not uncommon...but It does give me pause. I will look up and watch them...just to see if there is any thing peculiar or erratic with their approach. \m/

I love watching planes coming in to land. There's a place near here where we go to watch them. They are so low we can wave to the pilots :)
