Planes bust the 1000 ft minimum all the time near my NH house, which is
5
miles from the airport.

Are you in a "congested area"? If not, the minimum is five hundred feet.

It matters not what the law is, when skylooneybird is speaking. He has
already admitted hacking into AOPA's web site. I repeat, the law does not
matter.

If airplanes are at legal altitude, and fly where *he* thinks they are too
loud, or too close, or too early, he is ****ed. They are flying legally. I
repeat, the law matters not, to skylooneybird.

Why doesn't somebody just step on him?

I'm beginning to think so also. That's three joyrides in a couple months. Bigger
planes each time. Bigger airports each time.

Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your neighbor.
It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.

In article

"Skylune" tossed another turd into the
punchbowl:

More Ha Ha. Put this in your pipe and smoke it. The list is growing too!

I am tired of "Skyloon's" schadenfreude (malicious glee at others'
misfortune). on this NG.

He offers nothing constructive and continues to deprecate the spirit of
this NG.

In some ways I hope that he pursues his pilot training, really enjoys it
and then discovers, to his horror, the damage that he and others of his
ilk have done.

In other ways, I really don't want him to join the pilot community, with
his arrogance and destructive attitude, as I think that he will end up
as another bad statistic and be another black eye to GA.

"Set up"??? For what? Please explain.

"Set up" as in someone with an axe to grind or some political hay to make hiring
or otherwise organizing people to steal aircraft in order to advance a policy of
restrictions against other people. Such as airplane owners.

There's a very old saying that you should never attribute to malice what can be
attrributed to stupidity. Following that, the first theft (that of a kid
stealing a Cessna) should be considered to be a simple case of stupidity. And
when some drunk goes joyriding into Hilary Clinton's back yard, a reasonable man
still thinks this is just a remarkable display of lack of intelligence. At some
point, however, a reasonable man begins to feel that there may be more going on
than just the acts of stupid people.

Whether we've reached that point or not is debatable, but something is beginning
to smell fishy.

The '2-lock' law like New Jersey had proposed is starting to sound not so
crazy.

That should be "like New Jersey passed." But you're correct. In this case, it
might have stopped the theft.

Doubt it. If they forgot to lock one lock, they'd've forgotten to lock
two locks.

One would think the US has vast unpopulated areas, but take the redeye
from the West Coast and you will see lights most every where.

Ha ha.

This is another ancient relic FAA regulation from a simpler, earlier
time
when there were vast unpopulated areas of the country.



Do you think that there are not vast unpopulated areas of the country
now? take a few minutes on earth.google.com

Are you in a "congested area"? If not, the minimum is five hundred feet.

.... "except for takeoff and landing"...

Ya know, in the high density altitude situations, sometimes I am
5 miles from the airport before I EVER get 1000 AGL. :-)

Consider pattern altitude at Leadville: 11,000 MSL, with the
density altitude at 13,000.
