A Spitfire to fly to work every day? Maybe if he'd chosen to fly something more conventional like a 152/172 or perhaps something Rotax powered that's barely louder than a sewing machine, he wouldn't have drawn attention to himself in the first place.
What engine is that thing running? Maybe it does actually sound like a jackhammer every time it takes off...
Would like to hear how big his property actually is, as in acres.
It also smells to me a little like spite on the pilots behalf. 45 mins to drive, ok, what about daily pre-flight, MR, warmup and taxi time, then when he lands at the other end, he has to presumably drive to his office/factory and how long does that take?
I'm just trying to see it from both ends.
What has all that to do with a land use application??
