Default RE: Is it time?


ORIGINAL: k3 valley flyer

Let me understand this, if my fellow club member hits me with his airplane because of his dumb thumbs, I will only get hurt if his radio was a 6 meter or 72mz type, if he has a 2.4 and flies into me I will be uninjured. Get Real! AMA has primarily survived because clubs need insurance coverage for their field property owners. Insurance is still going to be needed no matter what type technology the transmitters have. People injure other people, not the radio type. Ever hear the term pilot error? Or are we just talking in circles again so we can hear ourselves talk?
Well, 2.4 ain't gonna make dumb thumbs any smarter, but it might help prevent interference from crashing your buddy's plane into you or others.
