It could be due to the Doppler effect, which shortens the waves coming from an oncoming source, so they are higher in pitch.
In a modern passenger jet, there's something else going on. When you're in front you mostly hear the noise from the fan (the first stage of the compressor), while when it has past you hear more jet turbulence, which is caused by the fast moving exhaust mixing with the still surrounding air.
The word "paper" can be put in front of "aeroplane" to form "paper aeroplane," in front of "bag" to form "paper bag," and in front of "clip" to form "paper clip," but it does not typically go in front of "towel."
An aircraft with two wings, one on top of the other, is a biplane. However a 'canard' may also have two wings each side, one near front, other at rear.
The front of the aircraft AKA: The Cockpit
This is to allow the airplane to rotate when it is taking off. (Rotating is when the pilot pulls back, raises the nose of the aircraft, and the aircraft rises into the air). If the aircraft did not have this raised tail-end, a "tail-strike" would happen, which damages the aircraft.
The Doppler effect causes this phenomenon. As the sound source moves towards the observer, the sound waves are compressed, resulting in a higher perceived pitch and frequency.

Unless it is a service vehicle that is in use for maintanence, you should never park directly in front of an aircraft.
The cockpit is where the pilot controls the aircraft.
Aeroplanes are sometimes parked in hangars or more often on what is called the 'apron' in front of the hangars.

As the moving car approaches the person in front of it, the pitch of the car horn will sound higher due to the Doppler effect. This occurs because the sound waves get compressed as the car moves closer, causing the frequency to increase and the pitch to sound higher.
