As to your questions it is all the same as operating/flying a type B
aircraft.
I don't fly comps.

No Robert, I don't know of any others, but I suspect there are others.
Hey! I could fly from a paddock with a mate/wife driving the winch and
CASA and GFA would'nt even know.
Did the right thing though.
I fly away from the GFA for my own reasons, but do miss the fraternity.
I suspect Mike's reasons are different from mine and he like me has the
right to exercise his right.
Absolutely! I have no problems at all with people exercising their rights
within the law.
I understand about missing the fraternity - I have met some wonderful
people through gliding and just being able to talk to people about gliding
is pretty good.
How do you go with such things as annual C of A, annual flight check and
so on?
Also, if you are outside the GFA, how much extra does insurance cost as I
rather suspect you are not covered by the GFA's insurance?
Can you fly in GFA comps?
So many questions - it might be really interesting if you & Mike could
give this list an outline of operations outside the GFA.
