In the area of the Detroit River, or anywhere?

Last time I was there, there was a base at Key West.

Obviously he means on the Detroit River. There are numerous seaplane bases
in operation elsewhere.

Cycles' roar is No. 1
NH noise complaint
By MARK HAYWARD
Union Leader Staff
...
It is not easy; Hampton must hire special details, often at overtime
rates, to enforce the noise ordinance, said Police Chief William Wrenn.
But noise had become the number-one complaint in the region during
summer
months


I'm glad we agree. Noise from small airplanes just plane isn't a problem
when compared to other sources.

Say what?? I didn't write the article. LOL.

I posted the article to rebut yet another inaccuracy: that noise
ordinances are not enforced.

Clearly you've never lived in the Milwaukee area. For some reason, the

This happens by design. HD decided that they should make their mufflers
with removeable baffels. This means it takes about 15-minutes to go from
legal to horribly loud levels. For each baffel removed, the db level
goes up. I'm not sure you can actually create a straight pipe (one
baffle may not come out; I'm not sure), but based on the sound levels I've
heard, I wouldn't be suprised.
