Wonder if the OP has anything to do with the ongoing and long running feud concerning Ashcroft Airfield and the LAC?

Just a thought.

Might be interesting to have Nick J's "thoughts and comments" as a first time poster.

My thoughts are that if someone feels irresponsible enough to do an aero manouvreat low level in a built up area, then they can't be that responsible, a bit like the guy I saw doing aeros above a very busy Leicester airfield some years ago, then cutting up another GA on approach because he was in a sportier craft!

I'm no prude, but this is what gives GA a bad name imo.

Around Barton you are not in the "Low Level Route" and the airspace there has a base of 2000ft. Exactly how far and in what direction do you live from Barton ?

I live approx 12 miles SW of Barton
