I’ve lived in sengkang for about 15 years and i love it for the most part. One gripe though
I swear, seems like the RSAF purposely ask the fighter pilots to fly circles around my house everyday. Its so loud and the frequency went up??
9am also have 7pm also have. Sometimes 10pm also have jfc. I literally have to stop all convo/pause my movie and wait for the pilots to finish their pass. This can take anywhere from 1-3 minutes of just constant jet noise.
And ffs my bto at tenga gg

- I live in the west and I am facing the exact same problem. It makes working from home really difficult at times. Next time if I were to buy a house, the first thing I would look out for is this. Ain’t no way I will live somewhere near an airbase anymore.
- Lived in the West all my life, roaring planes are always a part of it. Funny I don’t realize how intrusive it is till COVID puts us at home for long periods of time. Now they really are a nuisance I’m unable to ignore.
Wanna have zoom calls for work? Sure, if I’m juz the listening one. If you have to listen to me, forget it! - I stay at sengkang and I don’t even remember hearing them so often.
More often is motor and car revving their engine that is the noisiest in Sengkang. - Lived here my entire life, kinda just got used to it tbh but yeah it’s annoying AF especially near National Day.
- I don’t live in Sengkang but you just get used to it until you have a wfh meeting and have to make the whole call wait for the plane.
- By 2030, PLAB (Paya Lebar Airbase) will shift its operations to either (Changi) or (Tengah) till then you just need to bear with the noise. Sengkang and Punggol, which lie directly under the flightpath of RSAF fighter jets taking off from PLAB
