Feckin noisy bastard RAF choppers!
« on: 16 May 2012, 22:32 »
Bit of a random problem and as there are some fly boys on here thought I'd gather opinion an advice!

My house seems to be on a flight path often used by RAF choppers, they come over lowish a lot of the time and that I don't mind, it's quite cool really, brings out the 6 year old in me.

Lately a few times they've come over Loooowww like real low so the house shakes and windows rattle like mad low. Every night this week they've come over like this late at night and every time it's woken my littleun up an scared the sh!t out of her!

I don't want to be all Victor Meldrew but surely there are rules about this? Can I complain?

Would be interesting to know because we've had some really low fly boys recently too :sad: Also waking up our kids who'd just gone off to sleep after 2 hours of trying to get them settled ! :angry:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Move away and piss off.
80% of your posts are total tripe, as they are mostly replies to sh1te posts created by the morons that, unfortunately this forum attracts.

Had typhoons flying low over High Wycombe the other week, to do with the olympics apparently.
