Geez, what a bunch of bull! They're not confiscating turbines! Where in the world did you hear that hogwash? Got any proof to back it up? First of all, they dont have any jursidiction to do so. The FAA is not a law enforcement organization, they are a regulatory agency. But, you have to realize, it was a turbine powered aircraft that started this whole mess to begin with, not Dave Brown! Granted, I am not a big DB fan, but he was not in control of a turbine powered R/C jet that almost hit a full scale aircraft at a recent event! I'm not saying that all the blame rests solely on the pilot, because you have a CD that lied about an altitude waiver, and a spotter that aparently had his H.U.A. while the pilot was flying, in poor visibility. I think you need to look at the bigger picture hear, and be thankful that a full scale aircraft was not hit and brought down, injuring or possibly killing the pilot. You dont even want to START to think about what would have happened it that were the case. Everyone needs to keep a cool head and stop listening to all the BS rumors that are starting to fly. I can tell you from experience, a cool head, diplomacy, and professionalism are three things that are absolutely needed when dealing with the FAA. We all start mouthing off, acting stupid, and acting like it's our god given right to fly anywhere we want, anytime we want, any WAY we want, and we will be regulated out of existence. This whole thing will work out if everyone keeps a professional attitude, sticks together, and works for the greater good of the hobby. One or two more incidents like the one that started all this, and it could be all over!
