| This has been an on going issue at this particular field, however, no one ever mentioned having a problem with the helicopters flying there until one particular incident where two members were butting heads, one's a heli flier and the other is an airplane flier. From my observation it was a case where neither of them wanted to yield the runway to the other. The end result was that the planker crashed his war bird on his second go round. I have to say for the record, the plane flier doesn't have a stellar record for good landings.
Simply, it's men being babies on both sides.
We're working on getting a new site, and if not for space restrictions I myself would love to fly airplanes there as well, as I believe the two technology's can coexist. I think we can work on that.

So....they can hover their planes....do tail touches.....disrupt the flying pattern for the plane hovering, but the heli guys are jammed into a small corner and restricted to how far out and far up you can hover your heli?

Our club (Wayne Modelers) has a lot of energetic, talented and great people in it. The club in question....Hackensack Valley Flyers, to me was very clique like. You had to be in good with certain individuals to be able to fly a helicopter. I was a member since 2000 and they never let me fly my heli there....but others could. That really upset me. I would voice my opinion....retribution would always follow. But that was just my experience and I can not speak for the rest of the club members.
