Desert flower, if you can find her address I'll take a sh!t on her windshield, while she's in the car, at a red light, on Pitt street, at 2pm, on a Tuesday. I'll even use a small stick to sign the damn thing.
Don't want to touch it, that would be gross.

At the risk on being pompous/patronising and assuming thats not just hyperbole to get the point across, that makes me think the author has serious problems and genuinely needs help. A reaction that extreme to a not unusual event surely points to something else?

long running issue, remember reading about it some time ago. i think the operator had agreed to modify flight paths around the sensitive bits?
trouble is
living in smaller rural type towns, the local chopper outfit that does the annoying scenic joy rides often is also the first call with the bucket for firefighting, search and rescue for lost boaties or trampers and sometimes even the nearest medivac option.
i think the operator does have some responsibility regards fitting in with the community but that moaner needs to think about the implications for her and her community should that operator go out of business because he cant supplement his income

Regrettably there are people paranoid about helicopters flying overhead, they honestly (and selfishly) believe they are being filmed by the helicopter (they are watching too much TV perhaps). It's just like those chemtrail clowns who refuse to believe otherwise.
As Scott Adams of Dilbert fame says in his autobiography - people make up their minds then find ways to justify it.
Sadly, the author has a personal issue and needs help, and it has bugger all to do with helicopters.
When the Caulfield Cup is on we get a few helicopters buzzing around for hours getting the TV footage. It's only mildly annoying and an acceptable hinderance considering the benefits the horse race brings to our local community - just like the temporary road closures aound the track which are more of an inconvenience.

You should get hold of an old mannequin, dress it in some of your clothing and stand it in the window, DF. Preferably with some binos to it's face. See how she reacts to that!

As for the grizzling Nimby; I have an idea.
Take one Helicopter, painted entirely black with no visible registration markings.
Flight Crew all in identical black flight suits with black helmets and visors pulled down to obscure their faces.
Hover near said Nimby's house until occupant notices. Flight crew to appear to stare at occupant, making no gestures or movements whatsoever!
Helicopter then departs, never to be seen again.
And yes I know; That would all probably be highly illegal but wtf, I can dream, can't I?

I've been thinking about buying a drone & launching it in the area so the drone next door can see it & start freaking out that it is spying on her!

Pinky, you would need a Black Hughes 500 / 369 or Notar model for the full effect. Vietnam style.
She's lucky HEMS don't go there, the 412 can be a noisy beast depending on the alt and wind etc.
