Brits tell Emirates Turn off those plane cameras!

why do the words...`whinging pom`, readily spring to mind ?? :-) Personally I think personal protests should take the form of: 1) Villagers stand in their back gardens and moon at the aircraft for being so damn nosy. 2) Pilots moon out of their aircraft at the villagers for being so damn parochial. (Defn: Parochial - Adjective narrowly restricted in outlook or scope; "insular attitudes toward foreigners") I wouldn't solve anything but it would make for a *much* more interesting news story.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/s...es/3489304.stm ------------------ Why don't you get the whole village to moon at them. Better still, arrange for a group of residents living in the same street to use their back gardens to paint a gigantic remark in Arabic (preferably disparaging) about the Emirates and then see how long it takes for the airline to change it's in flight entertainment programme.

Well you're a ****ing idiot who should have been strangled at birth then. FFS when I fly into Heathrow, approaching from the east, if I look out of the window I can identify Kew Towers (my home), my inlaws' house, the local pub, and various local shops and restaurants. So what? You and the ******s in Dor(k)mansland would get more intrusion were there a bus route running past your front garden. *ROTFLMFAO* Nice one my son ! Get a life. So there, ya bloody Guardian reader you. Whooooo da man ! |

"Nige" wrote in message ... If I lived under a flightpath to Gatwick and learned of this new intrusion into my 'space' then I would join the band of protesters. Surely the villagers of Dormansland are merely expressing their discontent at yet another intrusion. Already Gatwick has grown into the busiest airport during the summer months for package holiday planes. Not to talk about Emirates and all the other airlines. It is during the summer when you want to enjoy your garden. Already the villagers are really disappointed by the increasing frequency of early morning/ late evening flights. I wonder just how few of them have been there long enough to have bought before Gatwick was declared as London's second airport? OK - so I suppose they can all sell up and move to a quieter location. But just think of the upheaval and the inconvience? and, as Gatwick is by far the largest employer in the region, quite probably having to move further away from working there. And then the UK Government has been equivocating over the decision about expanding Gatwick to provide a second runway at some point in the future. Rather stupidly IMO. It is by far the best choice for expansion of airport services to the Capital. Colin Bignell |
