From America:
"Up to 52 of
the foundations supporting turbines at the Greater
Gabbard Offshore wind farm are “defective”, according to
owner SSE." The company revealed today, with all but
around 20 of the 140 turbines installed, that it is
looking to Fluor to rectify the situation so foundations
meet the contract. Industry sources said the news raises
the possibility of some turbines having to be taken down
and resited.

Letter from Sally Ann Kingham
"Dear Sirs,
A common misconception regarding the 'Atlantic Array'
Wind Farm is that the turbines will not be visible. This
is not so. The Fullabrook wind turbines are 110 metres
high and can easily be seen from Yes Tor on Dartmoor
which is some 32 miles away from Fullabrook. There is
photographic evidence on the internet to prove this. "
