Thunderfoot,
when I hear NIMBY, I think of situations where people are all for a particular activity or project but don't want their own property affected. As in, great idea but let someone else bear the burden.
I don't think you're exemplifying NIMBY. You are trying to protect everyone's back yard that might be affected.
Now if you were trying to shift the flight path over so as to afflict a neighboring subdivision, that would by NIMBY.
Where does the entitlement to see amazing views from overhead come into our laws and become stronger than the right to enjoy private property? I missed that one.
