R/C model hits a crowd: 2 dead and 4 injured

[First time Juke]

Happened on the 13th in Hungary.

Below a link showing the flight of the 2.75 meters spanning Pitts Special model. Flown by very seasoned modeller.

Extremely sad day for R/C modellers and those involved.

Very unfortunate. This is why I alway feel uncomfortable when flying RC around spectators. All it takes is a little radio interference, and you are coming down somewhere.
