If this was an AMA event (under the control of an AMA CD I mean) then I see some serious problems. If not, who cares?
Assuming it WAS an AMA event......I see a basic AMA safety code violation. I assume it is the operation of the plane within 25 feet of a person. Pretty big violation (poor seperation) according to your analysis, right Eddie?
Is there another one I am missing? I mean is shooting bottle rockets at a plane a safety code violation?
I also wonder if the site owner was counting on AMA insurance or did everyone claim they had homeowners :-)
Another interesting thing, no matter how "alternative" or "outlaw" any RC event thinks it is, there are NO WOMEN PRESENT, EVER. I have a couple of semi good (just "OK" really) surfers that work for me, they are COVERED in p**ntang every weekend! Funny!
These RC "alternative" events are a just a bunch of geeks showing up, trying too hard to be outrageous (I mean, a guy drinking a BEER!!!) filming it and putting a Limp Bizkit/Offspring soundtrack over it. I prefer we all admit that we are all just overage geeks and leave it at that!!
Funny!
PS looks like it was an AMA event..
