Let me clue ya in , and again I'll quote the AMA safety code directly ....

Document 105

Paragraph A

Subheading 1,a

CLEARLY states ;

"MODEL AIRCRAFT PILOTS WILL YIELD THE RIGHT OF WAY TO ALL HUMAN CARRYING AIRCRAFT"

Now , if you say the quad in question was being operated under recreational rules , could you please explain exactly which part of the above captioned statement you seem to have a problem grasping ? Cause to the rest of the AMA membership who actually abide by the safety code , YOUR notion of a jetliner having to evade some idiot with his toy in the wrong place would be downright laughable if not so patently moronic .
When I took sailing clases we were taught that sailboats under sail have right of way over all power boats. We were also taught in any conflict the bigger boat wins. Just like a sialor is stupid to try to cut in front of an oil tanker a quad pilot is stupid to not watch out for full scale aircraft.
