Hi
"When I were a lad", we would pass the place, when travelling on the A59, and always wondered what was going on in the large "golf balls". There were always plenty of american cars commuting to it.
Fast forwards to today. I was flying in the area, mindful of Leeds CTA at 3000' and CTR nearby, and wondered what would happen if I happened to fly directly over those things which are not marked on the map? I mean, if it is not shown on the map, how do I know if I have to avoid it.
Would I expect a knock on the door from men in black sedans, with earpieces and microphones in the sleeves?
As it was CAVOK, and being cautious, I decided to give the area a wide birth.
Ps. It would make a great VRP if it was on the map.
