Unless the aviation community and perhaps the FAA can work out a helpful response,.the path is going to be regrettably clear. The reality is that you do not have a Constitutional right to control the airspace above your property. The Supreme Court has already ruled on that and it is unlikely that this will ever be reversed. The reality is that pilots have as much right to enjoy their property as you have to enjoy yours. The reality is that aerobatics is an art form and probably Constitutionally protected freedom of expression. (...) You know, I always wonder how much damage we as pilots are doing to ourselves by brandishing arguments like that. I thought the original message was well written and I didn't feel the poster was on a rampage. If the facts presented are true, like the guy in a Pitts causing injuries to livestock and other low level buzz jobs, then we are shooting ourselves in our collective foot if we as a group cry foul when such transgressions happen and are brought out for discussion. -jav |
