Perhaps a humidifier & mist generator is required for the Carterton area then?

There is a definite contrast between the attitudes of the locals around Lyneham & those around Brize, the former mostly very pro the RAF & the latter very anti. Having lived with the raucous noise of the VC10 it's the change to the C130 that has presumably caused the problem although Brize has always been difficult from a noise perspective, hence why they would send their ac to Lyneham to do much of their training - I can recall VC10s flying visual ccts at a weekend there, something they would not have been permitted to do at home base, at least not for many years.
