Great for the fish....it'll be like 100 wrecks all in a row......and it stops the trawlers...

That simulation is not 8 or 10 miles off shore, it does not even pretend to be, ie- no earth curvature, the diminishment in height between mast images is a joke, but hey ho at least its not politicians this time being frugal with the truth. derek,

[Tiderunner]

At least this group care about the visual and environmental impact a construction project of this magnitude will have on our local surroundings which will keep us better informed than Eneco will ever do. Wether this film is technically correct or not it has already made more of an impact than Eneco's own exhibiton images which were at best a poor representation of what could become the biggest wind farm in europe.

That is the whole point,, factual accuracy, not frugality with the truth to score points. there will be no visual or environmental problems, you wont see them at 8+ miles or only a pinhead on the horizon, Derek.

I would like to see a picture of an existing wind farm , taken at 9 miles range on a good day.

 

There must be some out there that would give a more accurate image of what would be seen. Perhaps I will ask on the WSF site

 

IMHO the place where you would see the things most would be from high areas like Durlestone and the hills on the South of the Isle of Wight.

Go to Google maps and stand on the sea front at Whitstable here, you can see this wind farm: Kentish Flats Not sure how far away they are...

Exactly Charlie, I think a good example of 9mls is probably, The Needles from Durleston or vice-verce,?? A bl@@dy long way even for Trevors newly invigorated boat!!! Derek.

I asked the question yesterday and received some responses

Thanks Jason

|I don't know about them being a blot on the landscape - I can barely see the people on the beach in that attachment - let alone the wind turbines. They look like yachts in the far distance. I've seen far uglier sights walking down the streets.
