I have to say until I read these I would never have considered flying R/C helos a death-defying act. I guess you can find adrenaline junkies everywhere. Smile,Wink, & Grin [swg]

It couldn't have been Grimsby, nothing interesting ever happened in Grimsby.

It's like Britain's answer to Cleveland.

Danger is a relative thing.

It is always sad when somene is injured or killed, especially when it is in pursuit of a hobby.

However, HRFs(Hobby Related Fatalaties) ( I just made that up) aren't going to figure in your insurance companies calculations, not unless your hobby is shark fishing with a knife, or alligator wresting.

Neither of which have ever been practised in Grimsby, or Cleveland for that matter!
