*** PLEASE READ before Commenting*** The 2011 Sibley Fly-In had very few crashes, but still a few!
Everywhere I ever flew over the past 55 years of modeling, there were crashes. Most happened from brain fade or inexperience.
Back then, many of them happened because of radio interference or equipment failure.

But they do happen and everybody involved with modeling knows they and the spectators must pay attention at all times when someone is flying. What could go wrong?

We don't put too many planes in the air at the same time and usually let the heli guys have their turn too. Many do not, but me being committed to AMA safety rules, I try to fly safely and allow everybody their turn.
And if your going to make a high speed pass down the runway, call it first to alert folks and other pilots. If unsafe, do not do it.

And join the AMA to have the camaraderie and the insurance....just in case.

Also, please do not be offended if I cannot reply to all PMs and comments, as I cannot answer everybody with approx 500 videos of mine that people make comments on everyday. I do read the comments as and when I can.
Due to the numbers, I cannot answer all the questions I already made videos on. That is why I made the video...you know!

  • The character named Launchpad from the Disney series "Duck Tales" once said "Any crash you can walk away from is a good crash!"

  • What a spectacular show and unlucky with all the crashes

  • nice quality

  • Do you buy all of your planes from Nitroplanes?

  • Another very well put together video by NightFlyyer.  Thank you for uploading.

  • Anybody might think that it was a U.F.O at the night part.

    

  • was dogfighting with birds the other day..... that was fun.

  • Yet another Carbon Z Yak with a bad prop and failed motor mount.

    I also had the pleasure of test flying one for another flyer and the wing came off too.
