Gimme US$500 and its done!

Jesse, for $500 US I can fly there from Mississippi and do it myself!

So go for it!
Most of that is for the Astrum helicopter.
But you probably have your own.

Jesse..... are you trying to be a smart ass?

I'd say honest. Do you have any idea what it costs to charter a plane or helicopter to take decent aerial shots.

do the maya and tropic flights pass over that area?

sometimes, but they are simply passing over - if you get a good shot - great, but unless you charter a plane they can't do the number of fly-bys that you need in order to get some good shots.

I just took some pretty good ones on my $45.00 plane ride from Int. to San Pedro of the windward south end. I just asked the pilot to swing over my property and he did.

I was simply suggesting that someone could snap some photos as they took a $35.00 ride to Caye Caulker or Belize Muni.

And yes I do also know exactly how much charting cost as the next to the last trip I chartered a 172 from Int. to San Pedro for $240.00 and circled multiple times over our property to take #'s photos.

Oh, and BTW Jesse I am also a licensed pilot here in the US. But no I do not own a helicopter.

Are there any more smart ass comments from this peanut gallery?

Oh, if you're satisfied with third rate photos, thats only US$250...

I happen to think that this is a very serious issue. Maybe this is really not a rational forum in which to address it. Tropic and Maya fly directly over the area and you can see clearly where the cutting is done and the filling. I hate to be a cynic but possibly the project has stopped because someone has figured out that it wouldn't make money?????? There are only so many flights available to get here and we are hopefully close to a glut (as that would slow development)
