Funny you should say that, OF. I made a post in this thread after my most recent flight, noting that I had 3 near misses - two with big birds and one with a flock of big birds. I also noted that I had watched a year of Senate Committee inquiries in which the danger caused by drones was causing great consternation.

For some reason it was deleted by the moderators.

----------------------------------------

It was deleted due to a reference to another post (also deleted) and your first line comment. I'm surprised you suggest you are

The acceptable part of your post was:

Just got back from a two day trip during which I had 3 near-misses with large birds and 1 near-miss with a big flock of large birds. Just sat through a year of Senate Committee hearings during which the extreme danger posed by drones was the biggest air safety risk of the century.

But I guess there are no birds or drones at low level around Cowan Creek, or that if there are, us super-pilots would be able to “keep focus on power and pitch”.
