Guys, unless I'm missing something here..THERE WAS NO SLOPE COMBAT INCIDENT.

As for AMA coverage, you are covered by the AMA as long as you abide by the
saftey code.  You don't even need to be at an AMA sanctioned site.

Maybe I'm miss understanding and I hope someone can clarify.  It sounds
like because of the slope combat incident and now Torrey Pines that AMA
does not cover most standard glider sites.  If my assumption is correct,
that most glider sites do not and can not comply with present rules and
guidelines pertaining to sanctioned AMA flight, then changes must be made
in those rules and guidelines and those changes must be made as soon as
possible.  How terrible it would be for an individual or a club to have a
major incident and find out, because of the present rules, there is no
coverage.  Foot dragging in a case like this, by AMA officials, could cause
devastating loss to any of us.
  
By the way I'm going flying tomorrow at our AMA club sanctioned site but am
I really covered?
