The thing that pisses me off is that the voracity of the general public's anti LF sentiment is inversely proportional to their lattitude. 65 years ago i suggest the opposite would have been true.
Reminds me of a story a mate of mine told us.
In the 70's said mate was working as low flying complaints biatch. Irate old woman calls to complain about jets scaring her and flying too low. Mate replies with "could you see the markings on the aircraft?"
Old woman: "Yes i could even make out the pilots"
Mate: "Were the markings red stars?"
Old woman "No they were not!"
Mate: "Well think yourself lucky" puts phone down!
If only things were that simple nowadays!
