RE: An Incident with Lessons for All of Us
Go to the NTSB website and look at the preliminary report issued by the investigator and you can tell which way this is going to go.
the report states "the R/C airplane flew up directly into the path" of the full scale plane. This will not go well with the FAA, and my guess is when the final report is issued, look for a lawsuit to follow. The AMA and the R/C pilot are going to get hit for substanial damage to the aircraft.
Certainly will make one think twice before flying an environment litke that, at least it will for me.
