Ruan High
RUAN HIGH: Private helipad (Aka LOWEN FIELD)
Note: Both of these pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
NOTES: As a general rule this 'Guide' does not feature private helipads - there are far too many. But I did decide to have a look at this one, simply because it had been flagged up elsewhere. This resulting in it being listed.
It is something well recorded that in England at least, we have an extraordinary amount of people suffering from severe mental disorders. I have no idea how this compares to other countries around the world? But I suspect we do not fare too well?
A trawl around the inter-web reveals, to me at least, a most extraordinary situation regarding this site. It seems that somebody, clearly deranged if not certifiable as insane, had raised objections with the planning authorities over the use of this site. It seems that this deluded fool imagined it might become akin to BATTERSEA HELIPORT, or at least something similar.
I will readily admit that my knowledge is very limited, despite travelling and flying in every country in western Europe, and several others beyond, that I am not aware of any other country having people who, if even seeing an helicopter land nearby, for once a week and probably less, would become so enraged.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
