I don't find noise a problem at all, except on Saturday nights with the Archerfield racing. But they hear it at Seventeen Mile Rocks as well.... all over by 10pm. I find Salisbury remarkably quiet and peaceful.
Salisbury is such a peaceful suburb. I've never had a problem with noise here at all.
The main runway runs west-east so the most noisey suburbs are Oxley and Sunnybank. All over Brisbane gets plane noise, but Archerfields noise is not even close to the noise over the main airport (some of the wealthiest suburbs)
Salisbury and Archerfield are about 6 mins drive apart, the airport at archerfield is a small one, no commercial planes of any sort really,
They do flying lessons and some charter work but small twin engined prop stuff, there are NO jets at all.
Hope that helps

Salisbury is a mixed suburb. If you stick to the high side (most of the suburb) there shouldn't be a noise problem and it certainly won't come from Archerfield. This is an airport for small aircraft. The weekends are the noisiest with regards to aircraft. Most of your noise will come from the light industrial area, Rocklea/Salisbury/Coopers Plains.

I live 200 metres from the station and can see archerfield airfield from my back stairs - no noise problem - just get the hum and the fireworks, which I think is a plus, from the speedway! Salisbury is a great suburb to access all areas to the north, south, east or west! Great amenities and trains to the city every 15 minutes!
