We've already lost op and trg sorties due to local knee-jerk responses to gurning locals. Whilst I can sympathise to a certain extent the stn does seem to be over sensitive to local gurns and moans.
Bloody rude, even for you, old chum....
The station clearly underestimated the noise problem when this bolleaux decision was made in the first place - and it is entirely unreasonable to expect a generally supportive local population to tolerate additional noise resulting from MoD's impecunity.
Incidentally, car parking was one of the first topics I raised when this shotgun wedding was first considered. But 'they' knew better, of course, - "It won't be a problem"....
