Had several trips there when staying in Gloucestershire. Remember the NIMBYs will complain on days when nothing has even been happening, so keep good records! I remember reading in Flyer ages back about an airfield having complaints of noisy flying when they were actually shut for a week for runway resurfacing work...

KEMBLE IS IDEALY SITUATED FOR FLYING IN THAT IT'S RURAL LOCATION MEANS THAT A MINIMUM OF PEOPLE ARE AFFECTED BY THE NOISE OF AIRCRAFT, MAKING IT AN IDEAL CHOICE FOR DEVELOPMENT FOR THE AVIATION SECTOR.

This facility is a great asset to both the local and aviation communities and flying should be preserved here.

It seems incongruous that basically ONE family can put a stop to 70 years of aviation history. Too many of our airfields have been put out of action by the whingeing 'nouveaux riches'. Kemble is one of this country's icons; a great attraction to many people who attend from far and wide. how many businesses wil suffer if flying stops and the greedy developers have their way? Do they have the local council in their back pockets? I wonder!

]]> Fri, 5 Sep 2008 04:13:04 UTC 4091718 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/4091603?utm_medium=rss No doubt all those that complain cut their grass with droning, irritating lawn mowers at the weekend - and also like to holiday abroad somewhere. How do they get there? - mostly by air travel. And how and where do they think the pilots that fly them started their training? At places like Kemble! My message to them is simple. - If you take up residence near an active airfield - expect aircraft activity - and DON'T COMPLAIN! Try living near a motorway - that'll put it all into perspective.

Why do people who don't want aircraft noise in their life buy a house near an airfield ??? Or am I missing something ??? I live near Boscombe Down airfield - would the Council Fight against the Government to close The Aircraft and Armament Experimental Establishment and The Commonwealth Test Pilot's School if someone complained about the noise 7 days a week - I don't think so.
