This video is almost sure to start a lively debate on safety. A flight instructor and student in a Robinson R22 with an onboard video camera are shown flying over a group of RC modelers, and one of the men notes that a P-51 scale model has crashed into the treetops. They decide to descend and pluck the model from the branches.
The operation is successful and everyone leaves happy, especially the men in the helicopter (caution: strong language in the video as they express how cool it was). But some might question, “What if the maneuver had resulted in an accident?”
