Hallelujah to that. I have a varied fleet, including several electrics and a few glow planes, from slow to fast, and from 29" span to 63" span, and I fly them all only where appropriate. Anything fuel powered only gets flown at the club field. The electrics get flown more, since there is less prep involved, but again, only where and when appropriate, ie, the slow stick and tiger moth can fly in a school parking lot at night(they're lit, slow, and practically fly themselves). The faster or more demanding ones, like my wasp or a GWS warbird, I won't fly at a public park if it's occupied, because even it has enough kinetic energy to hurt someone if I got really unlucky or had dumb thumbs. I know I'm off on a tangent from your topic, but my thoughts are the same. RC pilots need to have common sense, and USE IT! BTW, my experience with the instructor (I only had one lesson; a checkout flight on a kadet) at our club was overwhelmingly positive, because I used common sense, and played by the club's (and AMA's) rules.
