Red Phone: Motorized aircraft at parks
"Like many people, I enjoy the exhilarating hobby of building and flying radio control model airplanes, but not every one does. On Feb. 20 between 2 and 3 p.m. I was flying my model airplane In Christmas Hill park like I always have for the past 12 years. Acknowledging the posted notification about the restriction of flying 'gas' powered model airplanes, I brought an electric powered model. I chose a clear nonpopulated site to launch. After a few flights, a man in a city-marked truck confronted me. While my airplane was in the air, he yelled at me and attempted to grab at my very expensive controller and compromising my ability to also fly my, also very expensive, airplane. I was afraid for my personal property. Not wanting to get in to a possibly physical situation, I quickly landed my airplane in mid-air and left. In all my years of flying model airplanes, I've never seen such a reaction directed at me or anyone else for flying a model airplanes."
