This new radio rule is a very important issue and deserves its own topic. So with Eagle's permission, I've moved this post to its own topic titled "New Mandatory Radio Rule at Torrey" in the Torrey Hawks forum. Please discuss it further over there. Thanks!!

~ EVEN IF THEY DID the reason for this Rule is to GROUND Pilots Unfairly ~ They must be selling radios ~

The Bigger the Toy the Smaller the Pecker ~ LOL ~

Take note of the size And speed of there toys ~ Deadly ~
They shouldn't be flying at all near a Glider Port .

Since when does an RC Toy take precedence over maned air craft ....
These's are the GUYs causing All the problems with the Window Rule's ....

((( If they're Not Good enough to fly RC toys with a crowd ~ They shouldn't be flying . Period . )))

This video shows the Para-glider pilots breaking there OWN rules
~ Yet they attack the few Hang Glider Pilots (NOT SHOWN) ~

Lets Stop the AMA Power & Control Over the Gliderport

~ Good News ~ Yay :D
Today the Mandatory Radio Notice was taken down ~

We know by Experience that this Could Change in a Moments Notice
Its Called " GREED, CONTROL & POWER " for Profit .

The Idea that a Group of RC Pilots can Control the Airspace must be ended ...
We as Fellow Aviator's should try to Avoid their Airspace out of Courtesy. that would be Acceptable to Most.

((( The One pilot in the Window Rule is Not Sustainable as the Sport Continues to Grow. Impossible )))

The Flight Director, also Abuses his Power to Ground Pilots ~ don't get in the Way of His Dollar ~
He Doesn't Mind, Threatening anyone's Rights or Safety.

This is Not a Dictatorship ~ Cornering the market for the right to Fly tandem or instruct should be taken Away.

The Flight director can't Fly a Hang glider himself ~ or even Understand what is Like to Fly through a Crowd
~ How Could he Delegate rules or Even be a Flight Director with Such Power ~

~ FURTHERMORE ~
I will testify that the Flight Director and STAFF has been Aware of All these issues that I have addressed for Several YEARS NOW ~
Including the Destruction of OUR Hang gliding Area and Sport and the Drug Abuse Problem within His Staff.
He Did Nothing About It ~ HE SHOULD LOSE HIS Lease & Position As a Flight director. Period.
This Has been Allowed for Personal and Gain at OUR expense, time for NEW Glider-port Management.

The Truth HURTS ~ HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW ~
NOTE : Please See title "New Mandatory Radio Rule at Torrey" in the Torrey Hawks forum. Please discuss it further over there. Thanks!

Time to Take Action & Make NEW Rules

1. Break Up the Control and Corruption of the San Diego Soaring Society ... the Gang ...
These Old Guys Don't have the Right to Control Any Airspace. Who do they think they Are ?

2. Same with the AMA ~ What a Joke ~ :srofl: :lol: :srofl:

These People are ORGANIZED and in Bed with the Flight Director ~ LOL ~ How Sticky
~ EXPOSE and CUT their Power Over the Glider-port ~

((( ONE WAY WOULD BE TO UNITE UNDER EQUAL AND FAIR RULES FOR ALL )))

Let's Not Over Control OUR Own FREE Sport ~ Lets Keep it LOW Cost or Free

~ Let Us Re-Unite to Protect Us From Our selves ~

The AMA ~ THEY'RE OUT OF CONTROL ~ LOL e.pun ~ Affecting others with their rules as they joke about it
They are nice people but really ~ This is just more of the same problem with NO Oversight
More reason the City needs an Over-site Council/Committee to remain in place until Stable
FAILURE of Our current San Diego Soaring Council and Flight Director
They are pitting us against each other and Not resolving Issues.

A Carnival ~ Dare devil Ride ~
Together, they have turned Torrey Pines Glider Port from a World Class Hang Gliding Site to an Embarrassing Guppy School Joke !

Check out the size & speed of these remote control TOYS
((( Deadly to Others ))) with No risk to the Controller ~ They would Walk Away
I'm just guessing well over 100 mph and much heavier than a bullet ~ AGAIN DEADLY ~
Kind of like having a missile whizzing by You ~ Either in the air or on ground, a serious accident waiting to happen ~
There Has been a Recent Accident with substantial Injuries ~ I Don't think its Been reported

It's Ridiculous ~ We are defenseless against this Club (the AMA)
Who the heck are these people ~ Are they experienced ? Are they drinking or loaded on drugs ?

((( There Used to Be ~ Should Be ~ A Weight & Size Limit ~ Protecting the Public and Other Pilots )))
This would solve the problem ~ Slow ~ Small ~ Light Weight ~ Not a Problem
Along with an AMA 2nd Person Spotting/assisting the Controller Watching the Sky for Traffic

All it would take is One Mistake of the Controller ~ LOL ~ Hate to call them Pilots
Or Let's See ~ Loss of Power ~ Loss of Sight ~ Radio Glitch ~ Distraction of Controller ~ Age of Toy ~ Structural Failure ~
