Not presuming anything.  Simply interested in the possibility that something could have been different that would have prevented the accident, or maybe prevent one in the future.  Not saying that the club or website was in the wrong.  Just asking what might have produced a different outcome.

Boy that is tough to read.  We put notices and warnings all over the website to try to impress on P2s the necessity to get the proper instruction before flying and prevent accidents like this.  Hope he recovers.

I was there.  Didn’t see it, but I heard the impact he describes and called 911.  Took about 4 tries to get through at launch, Verizon kept dropping the call.  Finally got a call that didn’t drop.  I was about to get in the car and drive toward the fire station to get signal.

Very glad to hear that he is recuperating well.

I agree with option 8.  I am not saying I am prescient, but I wrote in that exact thing the day the vote opened.

I also like the work that Mitch, Dusty and Marcello did for free.  Although not free, their time has value.

There was typo there from the copying, I assume.

9. We will get a loan for this.  The structure will be built only when sufficient funds are amassed.  We cannot afford to pay interest, especially with out low membership rates.

This should be “We will NOT get a loan.”

It isn’t allowed to camp in any random Federal park area, I don’t think.  Should the Park Rangers for SB National Forest be called?

Very readable. I like it.
