Because you are likely to be chased straight back down the track to the main road by a small group of incestrious rednecks carrying pitchforks and crying "Stranger!!!".
LOL.. that's my concern in any part of the UK.. especially with disused airfields. The status quo will have been a reasonably quiet airspace around that area, and here comes a stranger wanting to open peoples back gardens up to all sorts of new-fangled flying contraptions.

I can see the daily mail headline now.. !!

Thanks all for the PMs.. this is certainly a special situation, where NIMBYism is bound to be the silent enemy.
