Fick actually runs a wing tube restoration business. He'll take your old, warn out aluminum tubes and spit shine them to a high gloss. Dave, what are your fees again?

Kneecaps? I'm going for their thumbs.....can't fly with broken thumbs. Brian, I also use those soccer fields for foam, I would hate to loose them because of some idiots. Might this rebel be some one I know? former propnuts member?

Chris this is nobody we know. They never joined a club.. As for calling the cops. Unless there is real danger for someone that's out. I beleive that they already have banned all forms of motor powered anything from our parks. But this park has been kindly over looked. I have flown while the parkranger was in his car parked by mine. Not even a wimper. But if people get blatantly stupid, all bets are off.

Fees are negotiable as long as I get to test the strength of them by trying to break them over Max's head....destructive testing is fun...

Nice is nice, but if my secret flying spot was in trouble, I'd beat the guys ass.
I mean seriously, you could be saving some kids lifes!
3 warnings - then all bets are off.
I would put my 12.5" foot so far up dudes butt he wouldn't sit for a month no less fly!
MAN some people are so stupid.

This place is sweet too. They have field that they never use in the back. That's where I fly. They mow it all the time. Another kool thing, I can bring my kids. Who play on the jungle gym behind me. So there at least 200ft behind where I'm flying. I can still turn and see them to know that there OK. I made an arial video one time I was out there, the place is just kool. OK who's chipp'n in on bail money when I POUND THIS DUDE.
