Interesting. Are you on the west side of town? I was stationed on Ramstein and lived in downtown Kaiserslautern. My place was about 15 km from the main base, which is pretty far to pick up sounds. I don't recall hearing many aircraft, even though we were only 12km from the east end of the runway.
- wbhart 6y agoI'm on the west yes. But you don't hear planes? It's a constant conveyor belt, even across the city!
- hodgesrm 6y agoNot sure why we didn't hear them--maybe just tuned them out at some point because it was already so loud on base. What I do remember is seeing lots of C-5s landing at night. I used to ride my bike home via Einsiedlerhof, and the road goes right under the flight path. It was like seeing a lit-up piece of the sky break off and and return to earth.
