MIA to downtown is about 8-9 miles. LaGuardia is somewhat closer, about 5 miles. But LIC is very close to Manhattan and the flight path that does go over Queens/Brooklyn tends to cut through Ridgewood, Bushwisk, and angling around Elmhusrt area. So called the visual landing. A lot of flights though will come up from the North (Bronx) and land on the runway adjacent to Rikers Island.
Doesn't really pose a danger to 900-1000 ft towers.
