Don't fly over my house...
 

Home owner takes on 'Horray Henry' Pilots..

Do we have that many Pilots called Henry ? ;)

Home owner who took on RAF’s 'Hooray Henry’ pilots - Telegraph

Mmmm..........fast jet flying training has been conducted at Valley & Mona for 50+ years........do some research if you are going to buy a property anywhere in the vicinity of a runway.......suspect the Viet Taff at work here.....

If we have, then hooray for Henry:ok:

The kid's nursery he mentions is towards the end of downwind lefthand for RW22. Jets have flown over there, as HB says, for many years.

As a chartered surveyor, would he not have consulted maps before buying rental properties, and so be aware of the proximity of RAF Mona?

If you're unlucky, you could even collect a Hawk in your field :sad:

Surely this is a PR dream? He opened a nursery and holiday rental business under the circuit of a very old and very busy RAF airfield - then complains about aircraft. He, during a time when RAF pilots are in theatre in Afghan, then threatens to raise a balloon the only purpose of which is to create a lethal hazard to pilots.


He is a gift if the MoD had the balls to exploit him and help foster an association between unreasonableness and low flying protestors in the publics mind.

Now that my blood-pressure Relief Valve is in operation, I recall a case in recent years where a couple bought some crumbling pile near Wittering, then proceeded to sue MoD for the distress caused by those pesky Harriers which disturbed the tranquility of this pastoral oasis.

These people extracted a huge settlement from MoD; I can't recall the sum, but it featured more Zeros than the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour.

Blood pressure still climbing; will bite the throat out of a Pit-Bull terrier, should the opportunity arise.

When I was at Spadeadam 20 years or so ago one of the most frequent complainers against low flying was an ex RAF Squadron Leader. Ironically he was one of the pilots at RAF Topcliffe whilst I was doing my AEOp training.

A story from a few years back relating to RAF Odiham and the use of God's gift to the aviation world.

Perhaps this comment says it all (considering they brought the house in 1985),

He could have added that the airfield had been active since 1937 as an RAF airfield but 1925 as an aircraft operating site.

Speak of the devil....I just had two Chinooks land in my "back garden"

Both have just left after 777 had a birdstrike and the other one (AN) landed to provide support

Has rather brightened my day up!!

To the crew - I was the hairy bloke!!

Presumably, Mr & Mrs Dennis must have viewed Walcott Hall on a Sunday evening between Christmas and New Year, so surprised did they appear when aircraft from the airfield less than 2 miles away on the extended centreline overflew their property.

They got £950,000 of our money; the source of the noise permanently ceased 7 years later. I wrote to my MP to invite him to instigate a substantial refund. Mr Shailesh Vara MP was intensely relaxed about the retention of the entire payment.

I am intensely relaxed about never again voting for him, or his party.

He should have been there in the late 60s and early 70s! Gnats, Hunters, Lightnings and anyone else with a large noisey aeroplane would have been happy to upset him day or night!

All I can say to the boys and girls at Valley is " Lower and faster please!":ok::ok:

Shobdon's prize nuisance received a visit from Plod after he threatened to set up a clay pigeon shooting range in his back garden. :E

Where is that "Piss off Biggles" photo when you need it...

Damm and thanks as figured would take least 15 minutes rather that 4 before someone posted it :ok:

Racedo, if you need it again you can find it under "Piss off Biggles" in Giggle Images.

I remember hearing a while ago that whilst the judge awarded approx £1M compensation, he did not award them costs, which were close to £1M. Anyone know any more about that?
