At our field you have to chase off the birds or you cant keep track of you plane. lol The idea of planes scaring birds is just ridiculous. Sunday when we were flying we had doves and buzzards and howkks flying under our planes while we were hovering less than 20 feet over the runway. By the way who cleans up the horse crap on the National Battlefield? I as a US citizen am appolled at the horse crap being dropped on hallowed ground.. places where brave americans shed their blood. And the respect these horse people have to desecrate these areas with their selfishness by riding over hallowed ground and allowing their horse to just crap on it...... I FOR ONE AM OUTRAGED.. see its not hard to put them on the defensive.
