Do you mean to tell me that that is THE reason? Absolute rubbish and you know it. The reason there are very few complaints - if any - in the Dishforth area is quite simply because the cabs are hardly ever airborne in the area. To all intents and purposes the place is the quietest it has ever been. The blokes are always away places abroad and when they are not they are away on exercise miles from their base. I live within earshot of Dishforth and under a regularly used transit path and in the last 2 years I have only ever heard 2 rumble by. [They actually sound like a diesel train and are far quieter than the Lynx or Gazelle] That is why the complaint log is very low.

Since when have crews put the complaint log as the highest priority when determining their future desires? Never! Besides, whatashame and the surrounding area is from a flight point of view the most boring and useless part of the country to be in.
