At Ipswich Airport (ah, those were the days) someone put up a notice in the Lonmet Aviation club building. It stated something like: "Pilots are to avoid flying over the nudist colony, at bearing 273.2 degrees, 12.55 nautical miles from the airport".
We all had to do regular recces to see if we could find the place to make sure we avoided it.
It was good training. Now I can spot a loose bra strap from over 15,000ft on the approach, even at night, especially if the landing light has been left on.
