Well...another toy plane goes down. Unfortunate for the pilot and luckily no one on the ground was killed. This thing dropped in someones backyard. It seems they are falling out of the sky one a week.
These toy planes should be banned. No need for them, just some stuffed shirt thinking he's "Top Gun".
I live in the south bay, not Irvine.
And I live on the hill btw.

That's it - blame a guy when he's down though. He should sue the Daily Breeze for libel anyway.
How would he sue the DB? He's dead. Your reading comprehension is excellent.

flying is something that is truly wonderful to have the oppertunity to do, if you do not like GA (general avation) move to north korea, you will not have this issue to worry about. or maybe do not buy a house near an airport, what a concept.

Teh man was 76 years old, on two unapproved antidepressants and took off with just enough fuel in one tank to get off the ground and only 18-20 gallons in the other. Where was he going with that little fuel.

Sounds like someone trying to commit suicide.

Driving is a necessity, flying your toy planes is not. Ground 'em and the fat wannabies that play with 'em.

So I assume that you've never been on a plane? How do you travel?
