Sorry JW, but I believe in rural areas like ffve, there is a stipulation of 500' or under cloud cover!
There is a thread about choppers that ran for a long time, I was getting into it , however recent events slowed me down, I owe some balloons! Check archives for a poster named Thunderfoot!
This battle has been going on since the 1960s, but the recent refusal to fly to the Air Force might be a precident. There is an almost uninhabited area they are supposed to enter and exit from (below Eden Roc), somthing corridor!
Mabe a few mock up choppers from Albezia logs, Prominently displayed, tail up in your yard with mannequins and red paint, somthing for the pilots to explain! Profanity on the roof, or somthing like "copters crash" logos, anything short of any type physical threat! The model copters might become a rental item, as it doesn't make for good tour guide discussion!
I had proposed raising anti chopper logo helium balloons to between 3-500', again as a disincentive for the pilots, and as a guage for taking pictures! Just a picture is not going to do much good!
However, it was mentioned that the sierra club might get involved, and some were starting to suggest physical action against the flights, in either case I'm not there!
