I think it was meant to be taken more as tongue-in-cheek, especially as "complainer" previously served in VFA-113 Stingers.

Correct, not loud enough.

My grandparents' house in country side is in area where Finnish Air Force often practices. It was quite impressive sight for little child in early 90's when Saab 35 Draken flyes at tree tops over grandparents' house.

I know it was meant to be tongue and cheek I was being sarcastic as well.

Though the guy could have said something years ago.

@Garion you read it correctly but maybe did not read my post correctly I did say it was a weird request most people complain about the noise not about there not being enough.I was not complaining about the air activities going on near me either does not bother me hell does it does not even bother the dog and cats they do sometimes look perplexed by the faint crump and rattle of the windows it is actually not very noisy at all whit the TV running you wont even hear it.The range near me is only used with practice bombs it is too small for real big ordinance.As far as I am aware nobody near the range seems to mind it either living under the flight path of a major air port would be twice as loud.I find though that most people become accustomed to noise that might seem like pesky.I do not think that the training bombs used even have any warhead at all though I have many times heard the crump of hitting and then the rattle of windows which makes me think that is caused by an over pressure wave.
