Re: [Aus-soaring] State Comp Required Pilot Qualifications

Hmm, What I said, is that our insurers require a Competitors licence as a qualification for entry, in order to indemnify contest officials against the consequences of a claim arising from incidents at that contest. Is anyone suggesting that there should be NO insurance for contest

Re: [Aus-soaring] State Comp Required Pilot Qualifications

Well said Tim I certainly appreciate your efforts and have seen just how much you and Joy have contributed so that I can enjoy myself. Thank you. Sincerely. I'd love to see you get the opportunity to fly a bit more yourself instead of working for the enjoyment of all of us. Cath Sent
