    We just witnessed the beginning of the end for RC planes. I predict that someone will use of these to attack someone. Needless to say, RC planes will be banned forever after that. Never mind that it will do nothing to prevent real terrorists from building and using them.

    At one point it looks as if there is a second bird chasing the bird thats chasing the RC plane. If thats a Mama eagle and they were flying near her nest, no wonder she was mad. The video made me dizzy as hell too.
