Bullying desguised (badly) as precaution (long reply to Jay H.)
"Skylune" snip
What this is all about: snipped
Nothing is more frustrating than being frustrated. I can understand your
frustration of not getting any satisfaction. I can also understand your
frustration of owning a property and then not being able to enjoy it due to
the actions of others, especially if those actions were not evident prior to
your purchase. Granted, you knew the property was near an airport, but like
you said, the actions of a few, not the majority, is what spoiled it. I
think, unfortunately, that it is human nature for those that you have
complained to, to protect the insiders and shun the outsiders, for it is the
insiders with who they associate. I think that another way to skin that cat
would be to resume your flight training while learning who the offenders
are, then approach them individually. You may have more success as an
"insider approaching another insider". Just an idea, it may work and you
may enjoy your training, or it may not work and you may find that the
offender is just a jerk and nothing will sway him from his ways.
I personally can not tolerate neighbors. Not that I do not enjoy people,
but I am a rather private person. I do not like unannounced visitors,
salesmen, or even phone calls. When I'm at home, I want to be left alone.
A neighbors repetitive barking dog, leaf blower, or loud muffler would
simply drive me crazy. I feel fortunate that I can live in a rather
isolated area and own all of the surrounding property. I feel sorry for
those who wish they could but can not.
best of luck,
Jim
