I would think it would be an AMA club, not trying to bash this flyer anymore than he is getting beat up already, BUT he crashes most of Electric planes in one or two flights and now he is bragging about flying Turbines with no Waiver. Hence that is where the video come from.

Ralph,

That is not the Fox Valley Aero Club Field in this video.

Dont assume what you don't know as this is just giving our club a bad Rap for no reason.

I wish a Moderator would delete this whole thread as this is the kind of stuff the the FAA and the Dumb ass in office are looking for to shut down our hobby.

Agree with Greg that it is NOT Fox Valley

since it is on YouTube I and RCGroups I don't think you can easily moderate all that.

and I agree, its quite unfortunate. Hopefully the folks who are "helping" will steer this individual in a safe direction.

Greg,

My apologies to the club, I was sent information stating that it was Fox Valley, unfortunately there was no way for me to know that I was not told the truth. I also just received a link to the Club which has a webcam to prove it was not Fox Valley.

As far as deleting the thread, yeah, I am all for it, but you still have that person flying around in your area with no waiver and bragging about it on the Internet. I am not from Chicago, but this sort of actions have the potential for ruining it for all of us.
