    In my mind, that's not what "park flyer" means.

          Are they implying that there's a whole C-130 under where that guy is standing? "Somebody" didn't make the decision to fly out of there in time.

                WOW! Hard to believe unless you've been to the south pole. :Scared: It reminds me of that one scene at the end of the movie "Planet of the Apes" with Heston, where they ride up the the Statue of Liberty and all you see is the head and torch.

                  Best regards,
                  I dont need AMA, also the size of the plane makes them a parkflyer , parkflyers can come in any weight

                      the drone from the 4 turbo props I was out like a cheap light bulb
                      I did the same. Slept on the floor from Van Nuys, CA to Hickam in Hawaii. I had no trouble sleeping. I remembered to bring a blanket!
