Do you remember one time we were talking here , and you mentioned full scale aircraft not having horns ? And Crispy especially took you to task on it ? On the news today is a small plane crash onto a California highway and a car was hit and one of the car's occupants died . Looks like the car was hit from behind . Ya gotta wonder if the plane had a loud blaring horn if the driver might have heard it coming from behind and pulled off the shoulder and out of the way before the impact .

With all the rules being dumped on us who fly RC models that haven't killed any uninvolved bystanders lately , Maybe it IS time to demand all aircraft have a horn like you said 3 or 4 months ago when we discussed it , eh ? Or better yet , that each and every damned little GA aircraft MUST be fitted with one of those parachute devices that deploy in emergencies just like this one (it's said mechanical failure caused power loss , the perfect situation for the emergency chute) before they're allowed to fly again ?

This may be part "tongue in cheek" , but in reality , why SHOULD it be the RC world that gets the microscope up it's butt when GA kills more folks per year than ALL aircraft modeling has in the time it's existed , and still yet the GAs are allowed to fly minus safety equipment that has been proven to save lives in instances exactly like this one ? I say ground every damn one of em till a proper emergency recovery chute is fitted . The time THAT will take will keep them buisy enough that our toys will be the LEAST of their concern ....

I mean , it IS all about SAFETY , , , right ?????
