The only viable option I see for the club is to work with the county (on whose land both groups are flying) and negotiate a frequency agreement with THEM. Hopefully this would invlove at least a few of the group flying at the second site. Then the county posts signs at BOTH flying sites indicating which channels may be used. If individuals flying at either choose to ignore those notices or the agreement, then THEY get shut down. Or, they confine flying to one site, which is open to the public, with standard frequency control pins
IMO the most likely scenario is that the county throws up their hands, says "We don't need this" and shuts down BOTH sites rather than get involved any further.
If that happens, who is to blame? The club or the idiot members of the "flying public" that KE is so concerned about who have come in and disrupted an already existing flying site?
If you have a better suggestion, then I'm all ears.
Better suggestion: get over the
"idiot members of the "flying public" crap. Fact is only a very tiny percentage of Americans that fly model airplanes are AMA members, and of AMA members, only about half belong to AMA chartered clubs. Forking over $58/yr to AMA and dues to a club does not confer responsibility and good judgment on anyone.
Who's to blame if the club loses their flying site and kills the public flying too? People with attitudes like you and Robocop.
