Noise abatement a not an issue like they were in the days of the B-727.
As for LGA. I am in and out I that airport all the time. The Expressway visual is another fun approach. 7,000 ft is plenty. Just can't get fancy.
Those visual approaches are where you get to use your stick and rudder skills.
Hate to say it but none of the approaches you speak of are anything like flying into Tegucigalpa Honduras.
The freight flying I did was also fun. Runways so short if they were wet you can't land there. Let alone snow. The company I worked for had a waiver just after Katrina to fly into KMSY carrying water and tankering fuel landing the short runway with NO approach, no airport or runway lights at night and no operating control tower. Now that was seat of your pants flying.
