If you're referring to the FAA/LAX sound abatement project we have already had that done. At that time they were not doing AC installs (which seems to come and go with the program) but that is when we had the central air upgraded to what it is today.

We got new windows and new heat which is fantastic in the winter. All of it is useless in the summer though because we have to open up all the windows of course. We of course mentioned this to the program directors at the time and they basically shrugged. The FAA and LAX got my feedback though - it is a pretty crappy program in that regard but outside of that we got a much better noise situation.

The AC upgrade that they offered us was over $8000 which I declined and the contractor they were working with doing the HVAC work was pretty lame and I'm glad I didn't have them do more than they did.
