for case law, and 28 days max per year/q

Mmm so if it *is* within the curtilage?

Did you not the read document I provided the link to ?

....

5. Enforcement
If an aircraft breaches the rules, the CAA will investigate if a member
of the public gathers evidence, including the type of aircraft involved.
The section of the CAA which can

'investigate is:

The Head of Aviation Regulation Enforcement and Investigation Branch

CAA House, 45-59 Kingsway

London

WC2B 6TE

A written answer from 1998 provided details of the action taken by the CAA,

[...] if there appears to be a breach of aviation legislation, steps are taken to
identify the machine and the pilot responsible and to ascertain if there are
any exemptions or permissions in issue which would account

for the observed activity. If it then appears that the flight was in breach
of the rules and also that there is a reasonable prospect of obtaining
sufficient evidence suitable for presentation to a court, a full criminal

investigation is carried out and evidence is taken by a CAA Investigation
Officer in accordance with the

Police and Criminal Evidence Act, 1984.

quote

Accumulating the necessary evidence shouldn't be too difficult.
If matey is creating such a racket that he's disturbing a number
of neighbours then they can all keep diaries or logs of the
disturbance.

Plus video footage of the helicoptor, both parked and in the
air would help.

Presumably were matey found guilty then he might then render
himself liable for damages for any noise nuisance resulting
from his illegal activity.

While in principle this is what should happen, its possible
that the CAA might drag their feet, owing to a lack of percieved
public concern for those unfortunate enough to live next door
to people rich enough to fly helicopters from their back gardens.

When I complained about a bloke looping the loop just above my house
every Sunday afternoon they ****ed me off totally. Luckily he crashed
and killed himself shortly afterwards.

Ineptocracy

(in-ep-toc-ra-cy) €“ a system of government where the least capable to
lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the
members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are
rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a
diminishing number of producers.

There's a Sod who does that around here, I keep quoting from one of
Spike Milligans books " I hope you Bloody well crash" but nothing has
happened yet. perhaps I ought to rip the page out
http://dev.epubbud.com/uploads/8/5/9...ages_00036.jpg
and send it to the address the plane is registered at.
I'm sure if I revved a loud motorcycle around outside the chaps house
for hours he would complain but these Biggles types think it OK to
inflict their noise over a wide area. For some reason the aviation
hobby think planes and pilots are something special to be admired.
Maybe in the days of Alan Cobham and his flying Circus but the novelty
has long gone.

You'd think they'd have better silencers or at least silencers but it
seems that would cost too much for type approvals;!...

So I was told be a flying type..

I wouldn't be surprised if that wouldn't set a manufacturer back a
couple of million pounds, for something many users probably wouldn't
want to fit anyway. If it is a warbird, which are quite popular for
aerobatics, there might not even be a manufacturer still around to get
it approved.
