Default RE: An Incident with Lessons for All of Us

RULE NUMER ONE:LAND when a man-carrying aircraft is in the area. Absolutly no exceptions. If necessary, run your aircraft into the ground if there is the SLIGHTEST chance of a mid-air.

Any questions?
Sure, I have a question:
What is the numerical delineation of "In the area",
how many miles and what alts?

Cause we have folks flying models on/near airports all the time,
and as Sport alluded to, 'in the area' is subjective isnt it

100' and 1/8mile is obvious,
but how far and far up do you consider "In the area" that all models at/near airports must land?
500' within 1mile? 1000' within 2miles??? What is this 'area' you speak of
