Nev interesting comment that - would nt worry me (nor most of us) having aircraft whizzing around at a strip but bikes (in particular moto X) (road bike get an unqualified exemption Nev) any moto X bikes blipping (for want of a better word) all afternoon can be very annoying and tiring (except I assume if you are on the said moto X bike doing the blipping)
Kyle Communications Posted April 30 Posted April 30 We did look at where our block is situated. Just for those reasons...didnt want one along the strips or close to the Biggenden Road..also so that the hangar would face east in the mornings...no westerly sun at the back
facthunter Posted April 30 Posted April 30 (edited) MX bikes aren't that noisy if the exhaust system is standard and you won't compete if it isn't. John a C-180 on take off is pretty noisy. People don't like aeroplanes overhead and low. Nev Edited April 30 by facthunter more content.
