the
shots concerning traffic patterns.The most avid golfer at Nellis is the
CO..And
nobody gives a damn what the retired military thinks or wants. You figure
it
out.

You really need to lose that over grown chip on your shoulder. The golf
courses in this discussion are *off base* courses.

Any of you guys hear about the goose/golf course flap at Langley a few years
ago? (mid-90's)

There was a proposal to capture and kill a bunch of geese on base. The
original story was a safety of flight issue. No more bird strikes. PETA &
SPCA got all huffy about it, etc. Long local discussions.

Well...the local paper ( www.dailypress.com ) somehow got hold of a long
email chain, and published it in a Sunday edition.

Pretty clearly showed that the problem was not birdstrike reduction, but
instead all the goose poop on the golf course. ACC was hosting an upcoming
conference, and they wanted the golf course looking nice.
