I Hate Helicopters...where's my gun ?
Well hate is a pretty strong word, but I've been living in what has now become the flight path of every damm helicopter in the world ( slight exaggeration ).
They're driving me nuts.
There are at least six or seven flying at any one time..everything from heli-ambulances to army, air-force, police,.. which i have to accept. But then there are all the dumb-assed radio traffic helicopters and TV bigshots & journalists who think nothing to fly by helicopter just to visit a local school or do a story about someone's friggin cat being stuck in a tree..
" Oh we need heli-shots of that poor pussy... boys "
My real gripe is that they fly really low and at almost walking speed..so they whomp whomp the air for what seems like hours..the windows rattle, the television reception goes skew-wiff.
Unlike airport traffic that has time limits, these helli jocks fly at 2 or 3 in the morning.
Then there are the 1,000,000 candle search lights..
turning night into day...no doubt chaing some desperado who has stolen a toothpick...You get the picture...
I've spoken to council & government air traffic regulators, but the helicopters apparently fall outside the laws' regulations with regards to altitude & noise levels etc..
Sometimes ..I wish I had a slingshot or one of those pee shooters..
....don't want to kill em..just wing em..so that they think twice about harrassing us poor humans..
What a bunch of helli-jocks..;grumble:
Sounds of Wagners.." The ride of the Valkarie.".
Dum dee dee dah dum...Dum dee dee dah dum... Dum dee dee dah dah.....Dum dee dee dum !!!

I bet they'll listen to you then... even if you *are* on the witness stand.
Have you ever tried to play basketball when a helicoptor flies overhead? :erm:

Go get yourself a marine searchlight, a couple megacandle should do the trick. Next time they shine it at you, shine yours back.

Maybe I should jump on my roof..& do a big fat brown eye at em...

Google must not be anywhere around here because the airplanes go 24 hours a day on this continent. Late night is mostly cargo planes, the oldest and noisiest planes that are no longer coolio for passengers.

It's the black helicopters that fly secretly over America each night to prepare the takeover by either aliens or the UN

Wow..now that's what I call drawing some heat...
I won't even ask how your " friend " got hold of a police radar gun...
2. Wait until the helicopter shows up to cover the dramatic rescue then fire your missile.
3. Repeat as necessary until all helicopters are destroyed.

1. Buy a SAM battery and then call the local media to tell them a small kitten is stuck in a tree across the street from you.

Like I said, I only wants to wing-em so that they can raise their ugly yungins in a nest far aways from me....
Now I guess they should have banned me rather than just shut off posting priviledges, because kickaha and Amorph definitely aren't going to like being called to task when they thought they had it all ignored *cough* *cough* I mean under control. Just a couple o' tools.
Don't worry, as soon as my work resetting my posts is done I'll disappear forever.

And because they're wearing ITT Aviation NVDs, they'll probably be blinded for a second, even with the brightness protection that those things have.

Aquafire: Keep in mind that shooting at an aircraft is a federal felony. Blinding the pilot with a searchlight may be as well.
As a balloon pilot, I clearly remember that some guy in the Midwest got several years in prison for shooting his rifle at a (manned) gas balloon some years ago. Sure, helicopters overhead are obnoxious, especially the news copters that serve no good purpose. But you wouldn't want to risk prison.
Voicing your concerns with the appropriate government officials is probably the best (legal) thing you can do. I'm glad you already did that.

Here ya go. It's in WMP unfortuantely though.

Yep,
I ain't intending to do anything illegal.. Do yer think that some bird-lime might do the trick.
Actually my local council declared our precinct a No-go zone for nuclear weapons, no transports are allowed to use our roads to convey nuclear materials or WOMD..
No kidding..they even had a proper road sign displayed..but tourists ( bloody young backpack terrorists iz what I calls them ) kept flogging the signs no sooners as they wuz up..
