Handysnaks,

Do you own, operate or pay for use of a helicopter ? I suspect not.

Have you actually re-read your post to realise the futility of it?
And excuse me for having an opinion - in fact don't, I don't require anyone's permission.

I actually don't need to attend the NEC for any particular reason, and if the NEC don't want to allow heli's to land there then that's their prerogative. But given that it's the National Exhibition Centre and they derive footfall equally from the business community, as they do anyone else, why wouldnt they expect visitors to arrive by helicopter? They certainly accommodate cars, pedestrians HGV's and motorcycles. Helicopter traffic in this country is by no means unusual.

Furthermore, most helicopters would land on a patch of land utilised for nothing else and therefore they are likely to derive additional income rather than less.

Your comments appear to be heli-unfriendly. In which case what are you doing on this forum? Let me guess your an environmentalist.

And on a final note, in MY WORLD, everything revolves around me. I make it that way.

Joel
