I hope Superman didn't get his nose broken on that landing! What would the FAA have to say about that? UAV, UFO, or Souper (sic) Hero?  D>K Steve

In 1944 18-20 year old's stormed beaches, and parachuted behind enemy lines to almost certain death.  In 2015 18-20 year old's need safe zones so people don't hurt their feelings.

If you mute the sound and let your 3 year old Superman hero worshiper watch it sitting on your lap it'll go along way.....until Superman lands on his face. "superman got hurt"

This is my classmate from the Class of 1975 US Air Force Academy, Otto Dieffenbach.  He is a prolific RC Flyer, once being an AMA D pattern and later Masters Class RC Aerobatics Champion in the 60s and 70s.  We flew RC together from 1973 until 1975 at USAFA.  Otto became a Flight Test Engineer after graduation at Edwards AFB, CA and later an executive for Martin Marietta in Huntington Beach, CA.

Here is his YouTube site: https://www.youtube.com/c/owd3

That’s really remarkable!
Live in such a way that those who know you, but don't know God will come to know God because they know you.
