I personally do not mind tail touching and low high alpha manuevering, but I would much rather not see people touching their planes while doing these things. It is just a bad idea. WHEN something happens, it is going to be bad publicity for the hobby and then there will be more regulations and expenses due to higher AMA insurance rates.

Personally, I think we can do these manuevers safely & continue to have fun doing them, but keep a safe distance away. There was one comment made about simply throttling back and let the plane come down if there was some sort of issue arise. I feel comfortable saying that most of the giant scale guys WILL NOT do this with a 4 to 5 thousand dollar plane. They are more likely to throttle up to create more prop wash. If someone is standing close enough, this could become a serious problem in a hurry.

If you want t go out by yourself and be wreckless, then have at it. BUT when you have anyone else at the field, THEIR safety should come first.
