Default Frequency control?

I'm posting in this forum because I CD the Mid Atlantic Jet Rally, and have been doing it every Memorial day weekend for the last 16 yrs. My concern is TX control with 2.4 TX's. Many people in my club are so absolutely, positively, certain there will be no need for concern about frequency control or types of interference. I look upon this attitude as ignorance, and I'm a bit skepticle. This 2.4 technology is new to the world of R/C, I'm not sure what the outcome might be when you get multiple TX's on the flight line and in the pits, either all 2.4 or mixed with 72mhz. I just read an article about interference causing an airplane to crash due to a news helicopter's data link transmission. I'm hoping that 2.4 is going to be bullet proof and there will be no concern about having multiple TX's on, but for right now the thought of jets flying in the neighborhood of 200mph with a relatively new technology, just makes me a bit nervous. If there is anyone out there that has concerns or opinions or even advice, I would welcome it.

Thanks
