I considered wind turbines, but since they don't really propel
anything I declined. They
do have a scenic quality to them,

Good subjects for pictures, sure.

even if they
have nothing to do with aviation.


But aviators don't have nothing to do with them...
They grow faster than navigation maps are printed !
Just fly toward this one instead of that other, and you are a few degrees
off course...
Should turn near this one ? Or in two minute near this other ? Why is
there only one spot on the map ?
Etc...

I definitely don't like them

One project near Portland (in Victoria, my home state here in Australia)
was not approved by the government because of the risk to bird life.
Apparently, it was possible that a wind turbine would kill one
particularly rare bird every 1,000 years (no kidding!)

Not all air-that-you-can-see is smog these days, but there's a picture that
still says a lot.
