RE: ama rule
well a lot of the "older people" are way way way way more dangerous behind the wheel of a car the me or someone else shooting at a rc plane in a controlled environment with a toy gun, if i use my 12 gauge the plane isnt going out of control because theres nothing left ya bunch of mary's...its to bad that thread ended up having to be deleted that had the photos of that trainer rittled with plastic bb holes because 1 person didnt like it being shot down what a shame.my club is going to use that airsoft style shoot at the last flyin this year to raise money to lengthen the runway for next year..there was a vote and the members ALL loved the idea, and you know what, not one person said anything about"ooooh that against the ama saftey codes".just because we will do this as a fundraiser or for fun does not mean we/ I lack ownership appriciation or that we do not enjoy building kits..uh hello im not shooting down a 2 thousand dollar bird..JEEZE.i hate how people judge you for having an arf and not scratch building it, well not everyone has the room to kit build you know or the time for that matter.I say enough with a saftey police already..leave it to the club officers to handle after all thats why they are at the field, if someone is doing something wreckless then they always handle it.I think that older people should have to pass a test to be able to fly..ive seen so many at fields that can barely stand up..how good do you think that persons reflex's are? i would be way more afraid of them than someone wrecking a crappy old plane in a controlled environment.
