When noise complaints turn nasty.
Caravan UMV has a new paint job at Tyagrah.
"No Noise" & "F*ck You" have been painted up the side, paint thrown over the windscreen and a couple of holes punched through the tanks.

Interesting new craze a helicopter and 2 aircraft were tagged at Moorabbin recently.
One aircraft was a jump plane, all were cleaned up within 24 hours.
Security cameras were operational and pictures found.
These D H's wouldn't know the implications of what they did it's a bit more of a fine than wilful damage and I doubt they would have had ASIC's which are a lot like gun licences only the honest people have them to confirm their honesty.
Hope they catch these clowns before it gets to sabotaging the aircraft and some poor ASIC holder gets hurt.

All you would need at Moorabbin to do this would be the 4 digit access code and away you go. Ride past the cameras on your push bike and nobody will ever catch you. It's sad with so much security that it's bordering on useless for someone with half a brain.

Deplorable x1000
I'll bet someone will know and will spill their guts if asked. Just got to find them, and there will be a few more of them as word spreads.

Although I doubt it will happen I hope they catch these mongrels and if they do they better enforce the maximum penalties upon them.
The insurance company should seize their assets to pay for the damage if they can find the culprits.
They will likely only have a packet of durries, a half empty six pack and a banged up holden commodore, but if they are kids you could have a crack at mum and dad's house.

SEND IN THE CLOWNS
If the fuzz have not already called at every house from which a noise complaint has been made in recent years they are derelict in their duty.
Some highly sensitive residents have rung up to complain about a glider too close overhead. True. The answer for the skydivers might be a couple of Rottweillers. It will never be a security airfield. At least this century.
It has been alleged that some of the C208 pilots have operated the plane
with less consideration than others. But that is only hearsay.
There is a popular nudist beach a mile away. But that is not likely to be related.
The perpetrator or perpetrators are near the very bottom of the food chain.
Their dabs are more likely to be there than not.

Vandalism is rife all thru our society sadly these days & am not surprised at all that this event has happened, disappointed but not surprised.
Perhaps stand on the outside here looking in. Here we have some individual or individuals that are at their wits end re the noise. Now I live on acreage but have to endure my neighbors barking dogs whilst I try to sleep during the day so I can understand the frustration of some just a little & this is not condoning what these fools have done in anyway shape or form but I can understand in some small way what they did which has obviously higher ramifications than they realize here. Our judicial system shows a much higher level of understanding than any sane person can fathom by letting off criminal acts such as this with just a slap on the wrist, that's the real problem here not the actual act. This is obviously a last resort, humans can act way out of their normal comfort zone when pushed hard enough.
As Capt F alluded to here someone knows more than the average graffiti nut by disabling the A/C for more than just a days clean up value, that's the real concern here not the poor art work which just shows someone's low level of intell, there's more behind this than it appears I'd say.
Security at any Drome is only as good as the weakest link as this eg has shown.
Like 9/11 we where all caught off guard (we as in the western world).
Terrorism, acts of vandalism & even the morons on the other end of lasers aimed at A/c will continue once the initial reaction has passed.
I do hope they find these fools & make an Eg out of them as it might stop someone else in the future to do something similar, that's about the best we can hope for when humans are involved !

Alleged by whom??
They climb out to sea and back again, only in the circuit area for take off and landings.
Unless things have changed drastically, this has nothing to do with the pilots but rather some yuppies from near Byron thinking that the world is theirs and a long established business has no right to operate near them.
God I hope they catch these pricks and throw the book at them

On a more disturbing note -

You can't protect an airfield. Even in wartime, they knew that. The only thing they have a hope of protecting is the expensive bit, the airplane!

Lets get the information straight. This is not simple graffitti or mindless vandalism, it's an immediately identifiable (if poorly-thought-out) protest - and the aviation people in that neck of the woods need to realise their "harmless fun" is impacting on some people lives so largely, that they feel the need to take this drastic action.
If the aviation people concerned don't take serious action to remedy the problem and recognise that our recreational behaviours can seriously impact on other people lives, then it will only get worse, and lives may be lost.
I wonder if the aviation people involved here would enjoy a jetskier blasting past their bedroom 30 times a day when they're trying to get some sleep after having done night shift?
A large % of our society sleeps during the day, and needs to have their requirements of modest noise levels observed.

One track.
You are right, we should stop all forms of aviation, every airport has noise issues. Those that move next door to an airstrip should have the right to close it down.
All airports should be relocated at least 10 miles from the nearest neighbour.
Problem solved.

Sarge just beat me to it.
You move next to an airport, expect aircraft landing and taking off.
Its like living next to train tracks, expect to have trains going past.
You can't move to a place.... and then complain about the noise of something that is already established there.
