    I would have lost my cool for sure. I can understand having dumb thumbs and nose diving my shit into the ground but that would run me hot.

          That guy woke up, all jazzed to get the plane in the air, brag to some friends, and in a split second it all got shit on.

              So who's at fault, whoever got off the ground second? I would assume that there are rules to prevent this very thing.

                  Air fields have flight lines, everyone is supposed to respect it. Hovering in the flight line is a dick move. Most fields have a helicopter hovering aria away from the flight line to avoid this. Though a lot of heli guys want to fly out on the main line. We have one heli guy that is a regular, and out of safety and respect when he goes up, we stay down.
                  As a plane guy, in this video... I blame the heli.

                    Same at numerous fields I have flown as well. Heli's up --- fixed wing down. Fixed wing up-- heli's down. It's a courtesy. If heli went up second, he is to blame.

                      The flyer (pilot) of the plane called "low pass" before he made his turn to come by. I don't fly, so don't know if this is common or just something that is followed where he is flying. If its a rule then I would say the Heli's pilot is to blame.

                          I bet he had over $1k just in raw materials, not counting how many hours it took to build...

                            The zero did not look like an ARF so you may be right.

                              Watch the slo-mo the heli was doing some crazy 3d shit when the plane smacked him. Dick move for the heli guy to be playing around right over the runway.
