Title: Bad press for R/C...

Stupidity : 1 - Common sense : 0

All end up well, but could have been much worse !
Listen to the comments in the video...

( on a side note, still don't understand why they don't buy an helicoptere to fly like that... Tork rolls, that's all they do in "3D" / Aerobatic flying these days ?)

And the reconstruction of the crash.. http://www.suasnews.com/2010/08/717/van-aire-midair-video-pulled-compelling-reconstruction-created/   :D

I had seen the first video and I was wonderign why they do rc meetings on active runways. :(

But I must admit the second one brings a lot more info to what happened there.  :lol:  :lol:
