Might want to check out this site...
http://www.stopthenoise.org/ While focused on powered planes and their noise, note a quote from the site... "It is the mission of STOP the NOISE to...restor[e] local control over the non-essential, recreational uses of the airspace which is part of our lands." |

The airspace that is "part of their lands" ends at their video dish. I can assure them I'll never fly that low over their land, powered or unpowered. Shawn |

Flame suit on, But it is this kind of attitude that causes problems for GA. Causes problems all over being inconsiderate in my opinion. Gliding is generally quite quiet, especially when you use a winch. However, you are still intruding when you make a noise or fly low over peoples property. (Whether you are messing around, or making an outlanding) An analogy would be the kind of genius who is prevalent among our less educated populance whose car is a often heap, but its owner is of such a generous nature that he/she shares their taste in music with anyone within 500m . After all such a powerful sound system must be used, and they have a passion for this music. Legally they are driving on a public road, and your airspace ends at your fence... Don't expect everyone to share the liking for the noise you make. |

The way I interpreted their mission statement was that they believe that they have a right to the airspace over their property. In the US this is just not true. If they are trying to solve noise issues through exercising property rights over airspace they have no right to, they are pursuing a lame strategy. Shawn |

You guys are missing the point.
Even if their campain achieves just their first goal, you US pilots will be painting large 'N' numbers under your wings. We have had to paint our registrations on wings and fuselage for decades (in addition to competition numbers), it is a real pain! Who knows how much read tape they could tie you up in if things started going their way. |

These type of people are similar to the ex airline pilot who bought a house
at the end of a runway to a well established gliding club and then complained about the noise!!! I bet these people think they own the ground beneath then to the centre of the earth, what a laugh!! But I do agree that if they shout loud enough they WILL be heard and action WILL be taken, if only to shut them up and stop them pestering the legislative body. Its happening over here in the UK with 4x4s and greenlanes, it happened with hand guns in private ownership, and what a waste that was, there are more illegal firearms out in the public domain now than ever. Don't stay quiet, find out all you can about the people behind this movement and then if you can, use it against them in a big way. Peter. "Shawn Curry" wrote in message ...

These days, I sometimes think that guy at the end of "Easy Rider" had the
right idea.... Also wondering how they figure airspace is part of the land.... "Stewart Kissel" wrote in message ... At 20:00 14 May 2004, F.L. Whiteley wrote: 'nafod40' wrote in message ...
