Stan,
Dude, move on and get over it. Or maybe you can keep more baseballs that the kids accidentally throw in your yard, and call the police on that Harley with the open pipes. ;-) Bart "Stan Switek" wrote in message ...

Of course, I would also expect a notice by the course to the nearby homeowners. Even if the local FSDO gives it the ok and you send out notices, someone is gonna bitch. A couple years ago I arranged for a helicopter to land at my nephew's school. We got the FAA's permission, got the school to buy a liability insurance policy naming the helicopter operator as benificiary and sent out postcards to houses within 1/2 mile of the school. Not an hour after the helo landed, the complaints started rolling in from the people right next to the school. Like I said, someone will always bitch... I think it's a question as to whether the person has a valid bitch. |

Videographer filming for a video brochure for the golf course or a
gated community, then? Or photographer for the same? Stan is probably correct in his assumption that it was a joyrider. I'm just trying to determine if there could possibly be a legitimate reason for the pilot to be doing that at all, and I have to wonder if Stan did the same, or if he just saw something and immediately concluded the pilot was totally wrong.

They always seem to show helicopter views of the hole being previewed. It gives a great idea of the length, the lay, the position of the obstacles and the position of the hole on the green in about 5-10 seconds, and it always appears to be done from treetop level. Linc No.... This was buzz job plain & simple. But even it was, TV is not exempt from the FAR's.

Linc Any of us that have flown over a golf course knows that most course lay outs, for the purpose of TV fliming, would allow approaches & departures along the fairways till a safe altitude is reached. I see no need to fly over homes at low level. Doing so only invites trouble. I know the course in question. The PGA, LPGA, Champions & Nationwide Tours do not play there. It is a private course near the beach surrounded by residential homes. Very expensive homes. |
