You built an airstrip 8 years ago and got a permit for it.

Big difference between building an airstrip and landing your aircraft on your property. Kind of like parking a car in your backyard vs building a carpark.

just remmeber this all stems form the 2 youngest in the village going up to the big house and asking the lord if they could marry - certain unmentionable practices may of occured at that moment in the parlour ............. unspeakable things

 

we have come a long way since then

Right now I'm working on 12 Tribunal cases concurrently, on one where the game is to ensure I don't qualify to be heard, several renaming the Use to the difference of prime steak vs maggots, 5 Truck parks for around 400 trucks each in land zoned for agriculture, a toxic soil operation (with a remediation cost of millions.) and two Subdivisions - all timed to hit us over the Christmas holiday period a lot of it is in the names like your example where the landing aircraft becomes an unmarked, unsafe aerodrome with a huge risk of slamming through end fences into agricultural machinery and photos showing (a) Tullamarine, how it should be and (b) a boghole on a very wet day just when the Landcruiser is bogged in the middle of the strip.

Great example. I could show you several places where people park their trucks near their homes, the neighbors hate it but it doesn't mean they need to get council approval for a truck park.

It's like a lot of things, a percentage will always cheat.

Update --- Drum Roll

 

I'm happy to report after meeting my Pilot neighbour that all's well with the world and good communication goes a long way.  He showed me and my wife his meticulously cared for plane and his logs which gave us alot of confidence that he knows what he's doing and cares alot about safety for everyone. He's had decades of flight experience which I think, gives our family the best confidence that we're in safe hands.

 

So, for any pilots with neighbours ... Please Please Please ... Communicate with them.

 

We ended up laughing about the communication issues as we left. He's a great guy actually.

 

So ... if I have offended any pilots out there, I apologise. I came from a place of keeping my family safe and not one of restricting peoples ability to enjoy their hobby.

 

Thank You and Fly Safely Everyone
