Complaints to Airfields, both controlled and general aviation, are required by law to be investigated and responded to.  Important to note time of day, location of aircraft, and if possible the registration number of the offending machine.  Registration numbers are often not clearly visible, so as a minimum note the machine's colour.  Write to the General manager of the Airfield, or Chairman of your Joint Consultative Committee and keep a record of your complaint.

 Equally, if you find yourself fobbed off, get your local Council involved.  Councils have a duty of care to sustain your environment, and Environmental officers will be able to assist you.  Check also the CAA's and BHOA's websites for additional help.  More to follow.

Since we went live twelve months ago our site has received many supportive registrations, all representing intrusive helicopter noise problems.  We have become attached to the Aviation Environment Federation where we met representatives of the Greater London Assembly and others concerned with aviation noise generally.  Here's some of what we've learned over the past year, and how we see things now.
