Technically your comments are freaking out my spam filters and need to be approved now individually. It would of been more appropriate for you to email me at info@gerritsenbeach.net instead of commenting on this post. Im assuming something happened recently and someone told you or someone had the idea to come here. That's great but we can organize better than spamming my comments. Have someone email me. RCSMP,

I am flying during the week and on the weekends. But in the last 6 month I am scared to come to the site to fly alone. Motorcyclist becomes more aggressive and they usually come in the bands of 15-20 teens/man. They are drinking alcohol and smoking w….. using our runway for racing…..They are destroying the property: club property we spend money for and personal property. They are putting us (flyers) and themselves in danger when not clearing the roadway during fly-time and ignoring all the requests from club members. At least three times I was calling 911 for help, but only once patrol car came 1 hour later. IF SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN, THAT MEANS WE WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY HELP FROM POLICE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BROOKLYN????!!!?!?!?!?! I also saw myself people in the parks uniform running bikes on our field, DO YOU REALLY THINK WE WILL GET HELP FROM THEM?????? There are a lot of people coming to the flying site with their kids to see the planes flying, to see our beautiful hobby, but they are usually runs away because motorbikes runs just next to their kids. It’s an accident waits to happen.. Please do something in advance, do not let someone gets hurt!!!!! Greetings,

The Parks Dept. has been gracious in repaving the current flying runway in an effort to enhanse the possible neighborhood participation in our sport. The club has spent much of its finances to isolate the runway from vandals,but in light of the newest upgrade to the Park, the parks Department has left many areas open where the vandals gain access to do their damage. It is very evident that the vandals are defacing the runway by riding several motorcycles through the skateboard park and ballfield for access to the flying field which are not licensed by the State. When members of the club arrive to fly their planes they are confronted by the motorcycle vandals who refuse to please leave and threaten and in one case have smashed the windshield of a members vehicle. They have burned stolen cars on the site also burning the wood from the viewing stand and the wooden tables. Please help!

For years i have gone there with my husband and flew our model airplanes which we love very much.. Over the years i have seen the flying field being destroyed by vandels and motorcycles who seem to roam the area at will. They have free rein over the entire area with NO LAW IN SITE they destroy the facility and the grounds that many of us enjoy . The club has spent thousands of dollars to try to keep the area clean and safe for all of us to use. But to no avail. With NO POLICE present or Park dept presence the Vandels roam free.. PLEASE HELP US OUT WITH SOME SUPPORT FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL FLYING SITE !!!! THANK YOU MARIA Hi
