Ditto DK,

If we made a study of model airplane accidents over the years, i am quite sure we would find the lions share would be involving low and average skill level pilots, just flying the pattern or landing. If safety is the main concern, maybe we should all work on our hovering and get that skill level up a bit?

Getting to the courtesy between pilots, we have a long standing tradition of calling out our intentions. You don't ener the runway area without yelling "taking off", "touch and go", "deadstick", "On the field".... That comunication is vital to our safety, and to a large degree promotes courtesy. If someone has been hovering the runway for a long time and you want to land, just yell "landing" and give him a few seconds to get out of your way. Don't assume that just because he is having a ton of fun that he is being rude to you, anymore than your needing to land is being rude to him. This is a give and take sport.
