Geez all this talk of shooting people down, do you guys really think someone would do that? I mean all I hear is that this is not a problem, or overblown, then on one thread a guy talks about several planes getting shot down from park flyers, and a couple of other guys expect someone to come out and actually maliciously shoot people down??? Crazy!

So what would stop someone from flying off the end of a AMA club runway with a park flyer and watching the planes crash? I guess nothing but love for their fellow man?
Do I really think someone would do that? Heck yes! Just look at this situation we're discussing right now. These "rogue" flyers are knowingly and willingly flying within range of an established field. Doesn't matter if it's AMA or not. Anyway, they're knowingly and willingly flying near this other field, knowing full well that they're getting shot down, and that they're shooting other people down in the process. This group has a whole lot of love for their fellow man, and they love to show it.

Do I really think someone would walk in with a synthesized transmitter and start shooting people down on purpose? Heck yeah! There are documented cases of this happening.
