Meeting and Petition for Pesky Helicopters

[gtill]

Thunderfoot, I found the Nelson Corrridor back on page 8, it is supposed to be somewhere between Eden Rock and FFVE, which would be smack over your head. Further explanation dropped it to between Eden Rock and Mountain View school! Why have you folks not better explained this, It would be a lot more pertinant than everybody's emotional nitpicking tirades,which is why i hadn't read it all. And 500' is the legal low over homes. The mandatory use of the corridor would solve most of the problem, as any incursion would stand out! A recommended corridor wouldn't cut it, mandatory is the word! Also altitude direction, 1000' in and 2000' out. And direction controls in the park, clockwise, or counter clockwise. I think the park can make their own decisions, if they are getting constant complaints, they can act on them! No i won't support a ban, on all flights! Controls yes ban no. Trust and verify! Some of you are calling the passengers greedy. A complete ban will reduce the people who see any real lava action to the young and healthy , Many folks can't walk the mile plus on chain of craters road against the vog. Do only those in top shape deserve a glimpse,of the hot stuff, how about kupuna, they aren't deserving? Talk about greedy, self centered and self righteous, like the sierra club, old, crippled or unfit need not enter. Note to Daniel who talked rocket and balloons, balloons ok anytime to 150' to 500' with airport notification. this permission would result in a NOTAM, notes to airmen, and why they're they're there! Please no rockets, ever heard of Homeland Securty, harmless or not.
Green balloons marking the corridor, red lining the subdivisions from keaau to volcano. would give a reference for pictures and make the pilots aware they're being watched! Mabe even picket the tour office as the passengers arrive, PLEASE dont fly over our our homes, babies sleeping. Active measures addressing control, not an oughtright ban. Slightly off topic but pertinent. The overflight rules near the grand canyon, now limit any real views of the place to the fit, and healthy. The northwest island ban limits the experience to tenured professors, "special" people like politicians, sierra club officials and UH students who we subsidised us. You tell me that a distance regulated tour boat (superferry), carrying 500 passengers who pay a 20$ donation above the fare to help fund barges for cleaning opala, would destroy the north islands environment? However, keep out the Whale Killing Foundation! Bans belong in Cuba, North Korea, China etc not Hawaii!
