RE: Overflying Private property without permission
Not in response to Toolman (fast reply)
When the olive guy tried to get the FAA to stop the balloons,
the FAA didnt slap the balloonists with a Trespassing charge.
Then, the second time, they again did nothing against the balloonists... balloonists that would obviously be breaking some mythical Aerial Trespassing law if such a law existed. Yet the FAA didnt invoke that mythical Aerial Trespassing law against the balloonists.
Now we hear folks posting that the noise nuisance can be from overflying adjoining property
... just how does this interact with the thread Post1?
Well, clearly the actual allegations and suits are not about Overflying Private property without permission
but general local noise issues.
Why would olive guy attempt to get a subjective noise ruling from a court
(where you can bet HIS helicopter noise will be brought up)
when he could easily get a slam dunk Aerial Trespassing charge against the ballooons in his private airspace property?
I guess its because there is no mythical Aerial Trespassing law to charge them with
(seems the FAA couldnt find one against the balloonists "Overflying Private property without permission"... heck, they were overflying against explicit demand not to)
