      OUCH!!! That really hurt to watch. Puts a bite on the wallet too. Hate to watch a nice plane get torn up like that, but it happens to all of us.

        Hmm, situational awareness, bet he won't make that mistake again!

                Holy moly!

                If your destined to crash, it might as well be spectacular, and that was pretty spectacular!

                At least the sign is ok :P

                    He almost missed that.... Almost.... LOL! I was going frame by frame on the vid and he actually bent that sign post sideways right when it hit. Best example of entropy I've seen in awhile. ;)

                        You hate to see that but you sure don't want to miss out on seeing one!! All RC Planes have an Expiration Date we just don't know when.

                          Entropy got me to guess that's the price of being a redneck.

                            Your not the only one looking that up Lon. I guess we don't hear that word very often in Iowa. :)

                              LOL!!! Sorry Lon, I'm kind of geeky and am into astronomy and cosmology too. :) I had to look it up once too when I saw a video of a physicist demonstrating "entropy" by building a sand castle and then showing time lapse as the sand castle moved from order to disorder and deteriorated into a lump of sand indistinguishable from any other lump of sand on the beach. It's kind of fun to watch that crash vid frame by frame as the plane moves from order to disorder. I do however feel bad for the guy and I know that somehow there is an attraction that we can't see that pulls flying machines into the only light post or sign for miles. LOL! It's that damn expiration date Wayne mentioned. :) Anyways, I'll try to keep my other hobby out of this one fellas :)
