At a recent funfly in our neck of the woods two full sized aircraft caused a few hearts to almost go into seizure. One aircraft did a low approach and overshoot - we're talking less than 50feet AGL here and the other touched down and 'did a roller' in the middle of a model aeroplane meeting. Peole were on the runway at the time. The 'events' were several minutes apart.
Registrations were both noted and both pilots bollicked rotten.
To my mind the meeting stewards should have Notamed the event and X'ed the runway too.
So much for faiweather fliers having adequate preflight briefings.
Could have been nasty.
