See Daryl Connell's previous notes on this topic. If a member of the public wants to fly a glider based on seeing some advertising, or if they just wish to have a joyflight, and have no interest in touching the controls, they should not be signed up as a temporary member of the GFA for an AEF: It sould be argued in court that it was not an instructional flight. If this is the case, you need an AOP, and charter rated pilots to fly them.

People undertaking AEFs take up membership of the GFA, and there is no restriction on us taking members for a flight. This is how the small clubs cope. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Derek Ruddock Sent: Thursday, 18 October 2001 09:24 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [aus-soaring] AOC Training (Sporting Aviation) This is exactly what we had to go through to renew our club AOC . Interviews of the CFI by CASA prior to him being 'approved', a huge amount of effort & rework, before our operations manual was 'approved', a mountain of paperwork etc etc. All this to fly TIF's (sorry AEF's) How are small clubs going to cope? -- * You are subscribed to the aus-soaring mailing list. * To Unsubscribe: send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] * with "unsubscribe aus-soaring" in the body of the message * or with "help" in the body of the message for more information. -- * You are subscribed to the aus-soaring mailing list. * To Unsubscribe: send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] * with "unsubscribe aus-soaring" in the body of the message * or with "help" in the body of the message for more information.
