A few years ago I went to a big model airplane meet at lakeland (FL) airport.
The area for camping was about the size of a football field.
I'm all set up and go to participate in the event. I come back to find a big class A parked so close to me I can't squeeze between his slide and my trailer, and, he's running a diesel generator with the exhaust blowing into my trailer. There is no other camper or vehicle on the field.
I asked him to move a bit but he refused, even the event organiser couldn't get him to move.
He did agree to shut off the generator before midnight. I did move away from him.
He wasn't even part of the event, he just sat in the motorhome and you could see he was just flipping through tv channels all day long!
I left very early on Sunday AM..5.30..and knocked on his door and had a few choice words for him..he just couldn't have cared less.
