Has anyone considered the effects of turbulence created by turbines on aircraft taking off/landing at airfields downwind of them? As a microlight pilot I'm acutely aware of the effect even the odd tree can have, never mind one (or several) 300+ft tall!! I suppose since aviation is one of the prime destroyers of the environment, so we are told, then there is little chance of any sympathy here.
