   Any aircraft folks here? Some rich feller downwind from me evidently got   
   himself a helicopter recently. He takes it to work everyday and flies it   
   across the neighborhood, about a half block away from my house. I don't   
   mind a few aircrafters flying over the house, but this one goes fast, makes   
   a lot of noise and is low enough to shiver me timbers. I'm not able to   
   judge its altitude, but it's low enough I can see his haid thru the winder.   
   It's not far enough away that I can read the N number on the side.   
      
   Anyways..... I ass soom he has to file a flight plan. So how can I find   
   out who this feller is?   
      
   This is evidently going to keep going on 5 days a week. This morning I   
   called the local FAA office and the feller told me that they can even fly at   
   tree top level legally as long as they could land if they had to. He said   
   if I could get the N number to call back and he would call the feller up,   
   but also said the feller doesn't have to change anything. That doesn't   
   make scents to me.   
      
   I don't mind a few plane and copters flying over the house but this one is   
   really loud and low.

   Nudest colony in Lousiana was able to get a no fly zone designation. They   
   still had problems with oil co choppers 'buzzing' the area. Land owners   
   took out a license for a paint ball business.   
      
   In the end a belly full of paint ball blotches made it difficult to claim   
   the choppers were not in violation of the FAA ban.
