Default RE: New Rules

We managed to find someone removing chain link from their property, they were happy to have us truck it away.....

I had the same reservation about the fences behind pilot... until I saw it set up. They are not tight behind the pilot station, nor are they fixed to the ground. More like a wide V shaped hockey net. Like many things, it sounds more restricting in description but I think it works well in practice. Safety is a practice more than a process, I think this practice makes sense and, although your point is valid, I don't think it's as much of a hazard as you might envision. Certainly less of a hazard than the one it attempts to address (and definitely less than the hazard of carrying large aircraft with engines running)
