Thats all very well you saying that, but its not your house, garden, horse, animals they are hovering over. NIMBY or what???
Not at all.

My parents live in Suffolk, and I grew up there.

Theres always been a large number of low flying Chinooks flying over their small village. Recently theres been a few apaches too, and the occasional fast jet and Herc.

My parents (and me) have always appreciated the need for low level flying, even though they have pets which get scared $h1tless.

My parents neighbour also keeps horses, and he too understands the need (though he is ex army, and probably has a greater understandin than Joe Average).

I just think endangering peoples lives like that is completely irresponsible.
