Default 2005 Junior Worlds Accident

Let's say this person who was killed outside the boundary of the
airport was hit by a 747 landing...we see plenty of images from some
airport in the Carribean where just this situation occurs, aircraft
very low over public roadway on final. So the idea expressed by Nick
is....someone standing under the flight path of an aircraft is
responsible for their death...including those areas outside of an
airport? Sure this guy was there to take pictures, but it was a
public road for Christ's sake. Public roads are not the domains of
gliders doing competion finishes, at least not in the US.



I would hope that any person in the US who witnessed such a
hazardous condition over any public or private property would
immediately report it to both local police and to the FAA.
