I got a dirt bike, does that mean I can go ride it anywhere I please
on private, public or forest land?


hmmm.... Key phrase the "public". Look up the phrase "navigable
airspace" and see what it is, who owns it and who can use it.

Just as a pilot and landowner should have the right to fly his
airplane shouldn't I have the right to sleep late on a hot summer day
with my bedroom window open without being woke up by some airplane
buzzing over my property and house? I paid for my land! I am entitled
to the use of the land I paid for.


Turn that around now and see how it applies to your neighbor. After all, he
paid for his land, didn't he?

How about if I were your nextdoor
neighbor... Is it appropriate for me to park my truck in front of your
house? How about if I owned 5 cars and had them parked all up and down
the street in front of your house?


That's why homeowners' assocations exist. Perhaps you should talk to your
other neighbors to gauge their feelings about this.

Listen, I can certainly understand your frustration over this, but it sounds
like you don't have all the facts and you're trying to garner support for a
position that you haven't even researched. I'll be the first in line to say
that pilots need to be good neighbors and try to be considerate of others.

However, that's a two way street and right now it looks like you're trying
to kill his fair use of his land (the very thing you claim to be attempting
with your own land) before you even know what he's doing.
