Unfair To Horses
Have horses and near Branscombe.
The area has regular and very low flying by military- jets, transports and helicopters. Doesn't bother the horses and, in fact, welcome the fact that they're 'aircraft-resistant'.
This all sounds like another simple case of greed i.e. some people will do or say anything to further their perceived financial interests which, in this case, they believe are not served by having a nearby airfield.
