Whether or not it has happened, I don't know, but it is always on the cards. It is worth more as a building site than as a heliport. If it got into the hands of someone with no real interest in helicopters, there would be no surprises. You can't imagine any of the neighbours complaining about a planning application, can you?

No, and I can't imagine them dreaming of objecting to traffic noise - despite the fact that it is literally continuous and just as obstructive of conversation as aircraft noise (thinks: 12000 movements a year = 33 movements a day or about half an hour's worth). Occasionally I try talking to people while standing by the Main Road in Harwich (I mean, Harwich!) and I promise you, it's not worth the bellowing.
Perhaps the solution is to increase the movements to the point where they cease to notice them, as they did long ago with the cars and motorbikes. I could live with that.

I know who you're thinking of DB but I doubt it's the same person. Black Rat would suggest a link past or present with the law 
. ASU perhaps?
Although there is a black rat sticker on the panel of a certain Battersea regular..................
