A Bravo Zulu to the kids for getting the pressure on to re-instate this wonderful tribute to a fallen comrade. :cdn:

My thought on the complainers are probably unprintable. we have a guy who lives near Shearwater who complains about Sea King night training.
If you don't like the sounds of Freedom.....MOVE!! :crybaby:
 
I remember getting complaints about the Sea Kings from people who lived near the Victoria airport and there was always someone complaining about the Nanoose range.
 
Some people are always going to complain about *something*. 
 
I was based in Shearwater in the late 70's and at night you would hear the sounds of Sea Kings and Trackers doing their thing. At that time, Portland Estates and the housing developments along the west side of Caldwell Rd did not exist. If people do not want to hear the sound of aircraft, quit building homes next to a runway. If you decide to buy there, expect noise and quit complaining
 
It good to see the snow birds demonstration  back up and running . Its sad that people complain about such things just ridiculous . I have lived 10min away from the air Base in Trenton almost my whole life never had an issue with it . In fact the noise actually helps me to sleep yeah I know I am freak LOL but seriously when the base is quite at night I have a harder time sleeping to the silence LOL
          As for the Sea Kings being loud that person should give there head a shake obviously they have never heard a Boeing 707 taking off or heard the MiG 29 and F-18 escort flying during a previous air show now that was  loud but in a cool way  ;D 

    Cheers

I sleep better knowing our boys and girls are up there training too! And I mean that both literally and figuratively. I was posted in Goose when the Brits, Dutch and Germans flew up there (93-96) and sometimes a whole squadron took off. The noise was deafening for about 15 minutes....they had to pause teaching at the school...no one minded...it was our bread and butter and we all were committed.
I've no time for this kind of whining. :crybaby:
