RE: Our local field is in jepardy!
Inverticle
Sorry to hear about the situation your in but across the country
I'm sure this very same thing is reoccurring time and time again.
Been there done that !
I don't want to sound negative but from what
I've seen in my many years in this hobby. Once the complaints start,
look for a new location. Do what you must to keep the field you have
until you can re-locate. Of course , this only applies to glo or gas
airfields because as you know the electrics generate no noise at all.
As far as the laws, Can't comment on that . I'm sur that the local laws
in VA are different than those up here in MA.
Is electric the future of the hobby ? Well , I suppose it depends on where
you are and the relationship you have with your neighbors.
For sure , electrics are more widely accepted in rural areas for obvious
reasons.
Again , I don't want to sound negative, but if you want to fly glo or gas
start looking for a new site. It's only a matter of time.
Good luck with this
