“Why doesn't this same theory apply to very large buildings etc try the approaches to Heathrow ,there are plenty of tall buildings in London or is just a Yorkshire thing?”

“When I was a Radar apprentice at RAF locking in Somerset back in the early 70s, we regularly used to pick up the severn bridge on our screens, and in Germany we used to pick up the engines of local farmers tractors on our SAM (Missile) radars. Dont recall any planes crashing back then or complaints from the RAF. We knew they were there and we worked around them, although we did almost shoot down a combine harvester once !!”

“Madness how can a wind turbine effect a plane flying so high up? Maybe they realise that carbon has very little effect on climate change, and i was under the impression that carbon was a life giving gas? don;t plants need it to grow? and don't we humans breath it out? sorry about the rant i just hate being lied to about somthing like this... although i do think we should have other sources of energy”

“What are these potential threats?.. and how does a wind turbine interfere with radar?.. you've gotta be kidding! only way I can possibly think of is turning the turbines up to blow away their Chemtrails they like to poison with and claim its for a grid communication system...allegedly.”

“I see Dave, Hessle is spreading his atrocious knowledge of the English language again:
"been" instead of "being"; "feed" instead of "fed"; "compliment" instead of "complement".
Tut, tut!”

“If we have to have these "wind farms" (what a stupid expression) put them out at sea, they are a blot on the landscape.

If they were designed like traditional windmills they'd look OK, but these soul-less concrete monstrosities are an aberration.”

“You could mix them with really low ones to stop illegal immigrants too!”

“Never heard such a load of loaded bull!
If a few wind turbines could cause aircraft to crash we should be very worried. At least if there were to be another war we could be saved from the incoming enemy aircraft without lifting a finger - well as long as they are flying low! Yes, let's line the coast with them and we can save the whole of Britain instead of just the view of the minster.”

“Well I object to the MOD. Their learner drivers block all the roads around causing us to use more fuel.
Is that environmentally friendly?”

“Funny you mention kites, when I was about 13 staying at my aunts in London, my cousins and I attached three kite strings together and flew our kite in Gunnersbury Park, after about 30 minutes the police turned up and told us to get it down as it was showing up on the radar, we got a clip round the ear for our troubles, and another one when we got home. Ah, the memories of the summer of 1977.

I think I may be alone in this, but I like wind turbines, they look nice, I'd have one in the back garden if it was practical.”
