This has been simmering over the past 10 days.
On New Years morning I was outside my house taking something out of my car, I heard the wonderful sound of a J-3 Cub, but something was wrong, it was loud and moving fast. So my ears lead my eyes accross the street and low and behold I see a Yellow Cub over the beach maybe 50-100 ft. My jaw dropped.
Not only did this guy violate several FARs, and a local law, but possibly severly damaging people opinions of general aviation, for what? Showing off?
The weather was VFR, on the edge of the surface section of Class C airspace.
Why are people doing stupid and dangerous things like this, that can hazard our freedom to fly?
Now I haven't reported this to the FSDO, not my style, though some of the locals may have.
