Tail strikes aren't good at any point in flying... But he it actually happened, i doubt skywest would waste an aircraft

This is what was reported in The West Australian - it mentions hydraulics but nothing to do with tail-dragging...

I can just imagine it, and for your in flight entertainment we will be playing Top Gun soundtrack, and Aces High by Iron Maiden...while doing the moves.

Apparently they have been imprisioned, its a federal offence to fly one of those 5km within an airport

No they haven't been imprisoned..... On the news this morning, they clearly stated that the pilot of the model plane faces 2 years jail for flying the model aircraft deliberately towards the Virgin Blue plane.
