The Fleet Air Arm at RNAS Yeovilton have information on their website regarding numerous high powered torches being pointed at the Lynx and Seakings using Merryfield. And to call them or the police if someone sees them doing it.
"Snip":-
DANGER TO AIRCRAFT. : There have been a number of instances of helicopters (especially close to Merryfield) being illuminated at night with powerful torches. It must be stressed that this is extremely dangerous, especially to aircrews using Night vision Equipment and has serious flight safety implications. It is also a civil offence, and the police are always informed of incidents. "Unsnip"
