The AMA is just covering their behind on this one, if only for insurance purposes. Don't they fly Quickie 500 races at the NATS? Ever seen this type of race? You've got planes weighing around 4 pounds going 200 mph. Compare that to foamy Zagi at 1 pound going 20 mph. I'm no math major, but I do remember something like Force = Mass x Acceleration.
Maybe someone can buy some used batting cages and we can put all the combat guys inside these nets. It would create kind of a "caged animal" vibe that might work well and solve the insurance problem :-) JE -- Erickson Architects John R.
