You will never see a model airplane bring down an airliner. Will never happen. The odds of even have and incident is very small, and actually bringing the plane down even smaller.
Please don't make me go dig our your quotes in this and other forums where you indicated that metal in quads wouldn't damage an engine substantially. I believe you said something about metal parts bouncing off...or words to that effect. In fact, in response to your comments saying little damage would result, I think I posted photos of major damage to engine compressor blades, holes in radomes, cockpit windshield's smashed and or penetrated, etc.
