Hi New York Flyer,

I'm terrible with names, so I refer to many of the flyers by their planes. So which flyer are you? I'm pretty sure that you are not Tony, so I'm guessing that you are either the Mini-Funtana guy or the Typhoon guy. As you can see I'm Leo, the guy with the Christen Eagle/Trojan/Typhoon/J3Cub.

I agree that the houses must be considered a NO FLY ZONE. However, baseball fields with people playing on them must fall in this catagory as well. I've seen too many of the evening flyers fly their planes directly over the players. Sometimes our fellow flyers are our own worst enemy. Many incidents and accidents can be avoided by some simple common sense and basic consideration for the rights of others. Like the mid-air collision last week between the plane and the heli. If the heli flyer had taken notice that the plane flyers were all using a common landing area, and had found a different area of the field to fly, therer would not have been a collision. Likewise, if the plane flyer had announced his intention to land, the heli flyer might have warned him or landed the heli, again preventing the collision.
