when they built the new Home Depot here.... the RC hobby group lost it's "field" they operated out of.
so they went to an old unused landfield that no one wanted. (it was covered in dirt in grassed over...) (this landfield closed like 30 years ago)
well seemed like the perfect place. I mean who wants to use a landfield for anything else?
well one of the people who live directly next door didn't appreciate the high pitch whine/buzz of model airplanes and the RC'er's often flew off the property and over his house. He complained a lot to the city/county about the noise... but they didn't do anything about it.
well..... this guy got tired of it and got out his "anti-aircraft gun" (12 gauge with bird shot) and proceeded to start shooting down airplanes when they went over his property. He shot one down...
I think they pressed charges against him. I can't remember the outcome. was pretty interesting reading about it. (if I can find the article, I'll post it).

I think we heard about that one.
It made the RC forums.
Or maybe it was one in California.
It happens.

It's hunting season. Some dumb ass rednecks will shoot at anything they see that is movement.
The Orange Vest is called "Hunter Safety Orange". It's his visibility. (and Deer don't wear Orange vests).
