As I sit here with helicopters buzzing overhead...

There is a thread on all this under the building forum. It discusses ventilation, proposed code changes and more. That might be the better place to continue code/building conversations.

Yes, I don't understand why the helicopter topic is going off into yurts at all -- or insulation.

The argument here seems to be that If YurtGirl had insulation, the helicopters wouldn't bother her? I'm not sure what the argument is.

1) This is about all the homeowners subject to the flight noise, not just those who live in yurts, so the construction of yurts is irrelevant.

2) A person has a right to peacefully enjoy property inside or outside. Even if all affected homeowners had insulation up the wazoo, what if they want to enjoy the lanai or the yard?

YurtGirl started the topic, and she might have an interest in talking about the specific experience of living in a yurt under a flight path -- but she herself is saying that the building code discussion belongs in another topic, another forum.

Seems to me the topic is getting all muddied up and could stand a course correction.
