I'm wondering (never having flown a model plane) how hard it would be to have the thing home in on the chest area.

It seems like that would be very difficult to do.

especially considering most people don't fly on their own, it's usually a whole gaggle of old farts flying all at once.

show's how good his friends really were!

I almost took out a row of graybeards sitting in their lawn chairs when I was first learning to fly RC. Got a bit too slow on my approach and had to do some fancy maneuvering to save my plane...and the old guys. Man, did I ever catch some flak from those old buzzards! I was pretty damn proud of myself for saving it, but they were'nt quite as impressed.

Perhaps it was hijacked by Islamic fundamentalist gerbils.

Coming next: Gerbils with firecrackers strapped to their bodies.
