I agree with the "nudists", as I assume you are speaking of people. But
who knows? (Does the dead pilot qualify as a hero, do ya think? He
probably was heroically avoiding a much larger gathering of orphans or
something....)

The other data you suggest collecting would clutter up the database too
much IMO, although golf courses DO seem to be a popular alternative
landing site.

Question: If a golfer yells "fore" and then drives, hitting a small plane
buzzing the course or flying in for an off-field landing, would that
violate the FARs? Does the FAA have any jursidiction over golfers, and
how high they can hit the ball when they drive?


I have to think that this whole issue (House Slamming) would go away if
either:
1. Boyer issued a strongly worded statement opposing the slamming of GA
aircraft into homes
2. The FARs were modified to explicity outlaw slamming, crashing,
"impacting" or otherwise causing damage to properties on the ground
3. Alternatively, all private homes should be taken thru eminent domain,
and residents re-located to small portions of the country where
overflights are prohibited.

There could be other solutions to the Home Slamming problem, but we will
have to wait until a large group of people are killed on the ground
because of faulty equipment or "pilot error."
