there is a small airport across the river from my house. its a clear day and somebody is flying awfully low over my apartment.

Do they do touch-and-gos as part of teaching people to fly a cessna?

It could be worse, they could crash into your apartment.

that isn't even a direct approach to the runway.

They do what's known as 'pattern work'- you rarely, if ever, do a 'straight-in' approach, you fly a standard rectangular pattern that is for traffic avoidance and to take advatage of the wind direction. You need to take off and land into the wind as much as possible to keep from getting yourself in a deadly 'stall/spin' situation. Stalls and spins are not dangerous if you have enough altitude, but in the pattern, you're usually 1000 ft or less.

Maybe you should try a 'Discovery Flight'...AOPA has coupons that give you a 30 minute flight with an instructor. Last I checked, it was $49. Best 'high' I ever got, and it's legal!

My house is directly under the landing pattern for an international airport. I have 747s at a reasonably low altitude fly over at least 20 times a day. Wanna trade these for your Cessna?
