Well, the poster on youtube is only showing what makes the RC pilot look good. Don't believe everything you watch, sorry bro!!
Ever heard of video editing, can be done quite easily in this situation to sway the feeling to who's fault it is. I am sure the AMA guy ask for the whole thing, not the youtube version.
I am going by what is written here, I am however willing to read what is posted on the AMA site, if you can provide the URL. I will not trust boob tube.
Again, boob tube showed us only the part leading up to the impact, not the initial 2 pases that was stated in the first post. So, if there was another pass before what was showin to the world. The RC pilot is at fault, as the runway was not closed, it was still an active runway, so FS has right of way.
Thanks for making me read the intital statements again, reenforces that RC guy and airboss is in a crap load of trouble.
The rc pilot has been quoted as saying that the impact happened on the first pass of the full scale and I for one believe him but we have yet to here from the
full scale pilot or the air boss. One thing we do know is that the full scale was in radio contact with the air boss who appearently told him there was a rc
plane over the run way, If the full scale had already made previous pass and still entered air space where he did have right of waywhile being in radio
contact with the air boss that only makes it look worse for him.
Also I think we need to look at the fact that full scale planes do not always have the right of way and it is negllgence on their part to enter any air space that it is not
safe to do so.
