[daip] Overflights NE of the VLA

[Richard Hoover]

I’m a volunteer pilot for Lighthawk, an environmental flying organization
partnering with groups interested in providing the overflight perspective on
environmental issues.  Lightwawk has been asked to assist the New Mexico
Land Conservation Collaborative to document with aerial photos the current
condition of a 27,000 acre ranch whose owners are interested in setting
aside conservation easements.

The flight would take us rather close to the NRAO buildings, although the
property is completely north of U.S. Hwy 60, and just NE of the VLA center.
I recognize that there are no official flight restrictions over the VLA, but
would nevertheless like to present a minimum of disruption to your
operations (preferably none).

Please let me know if you anticipate if our flight 500-1000 feet above the
surface just NE of the VLA center would disrupt your operation.  The flight
would be conducted between 10 and 11 AM next Tuesday, January 27, would
probably last about 30 to 45 minutes.  If you like I can supply you with my
aircraft type and registration number.
