I live right near Jandakot airport, and I am often concerned by low
flying, noisy aircraft that seem to be flying too low, (too close for
comfort).
Last year we had one crash in a front yard, just two streets from my
house - he had just flown over our house when his engine coughed,
spluttered and died. His plane then displayed the aviational
characteristics of a brick and landed in somebody's front yard - just
missing a carport and the car in it.

Hey Alex, don't get me wrong I have nothing against aeroplanes or the
people who fly them. If it wasn't for bad eyesight, I would be one of
them.
I only get concerned when some of the people flying certain planes fly
too low and try to prune the trees in my garden. It's a bit nerve
wracking when they fly so low that we can hear and feel the cavitation
effect of their propellers as they go past and have the windows rattle
because of it.
Not to mention the effect it has on TV, radio and wireless networking.
There's are lot of space up there, they don't have to fly at ground level
to achieve their objectives, and my trees don't need to be pruned.</pre>

Not quite right Arie. It is a designated training area and as such is
used to practice engine failures, forced landings etc.<br>
<br>
I can remember flying around down there below the fence height in the
paddocks. The training area extends from ground level to 5 or more
thousand feet as I recall.<br>
