I'm trying to decide if they are blind, drunk, have no depth perception, have their controls reversed either physically or metaphorically.

Is it really that hard, or do they just make it look that way?

These guys are really bad, or it's a collection of absolute low-lights from a weekend.

Come out to my club next time you visit MN. We aren't high falooting experts, but we get 'em up and down in one piece. I'm not sure if club culture has anything to do with it or not. There's another R/C club near by and every time I go out there, I see a couple major crashes. Saw a big Sig Sundancer lose it's top wing and go straight in from about 400' AGL. I saw a beautiful 1/3rd scale Pitts on it's maiden flight go dead stick in an inconvenient place and end up in several pieces. I've seen a mid-air ... that ended up like a tickertape parade. One guy had his on-board batteries die and spiral in, etc. etc. On the otherhand, I rekitted a big Rascal 110 last summer so I probably shouldn't criticize too much! :-)

Curt.
