I've said this before. This RC model thing is out of hand.

In a lot of places, you do have to take a test to be allowed to operate RC aircraft. EU and UK, for sure. Not sure if USA requires tests, except for turbine powered models.If someone can afford to, and wants to, why not? We are a free society are we not? I do believe that RC aircraft and other RC vehicles should have to take a test to prove they are competent to manage the things.
