Re: Fly Eagle Jet FEJ has been banned from Florida Jets
Dashpuppy, FEJ or Flight Eagle Jets has a history of delaminating their tails (mostly) and causing catastrophic crashes. There's a long history of FEJ jets falling out of the sky. Do a quick search on FEJ Hawk Crash and you'll see numerous complaints and threads.

Re: Fly Eagle Jet FEJ has been banned from Florida Jets
I saw that video of the FEJ jet losing its tail and crashing on the runway near the pilot (I think he was a Canadian flying in the USA).
Looked scary as hell. I'm sure the pilot must have had a mega pucker factor. In failures like this, its unpredictable exactly when it will happen or where it will end up crashing, making it all the more dangerous. Kudos to Florida Jets in making this important decision.
