RE: turbine waivers,,anything new?
I just starting to build my first jet, and although I've heard from a number of knowledgeable people, I'm still not clear on this turbine waiver process. Based on my current understanding, my questions are:
[ul][*] Do I have to have 50 flights on an airplane capable of 100mph (which is what I think I read in the AMA 510 document)?[*] Since the planes I currently own fly slower than 100mph, do I therefore have to fly 50 flights on my new jet (Boomerang Intro) with an existing turbine waiver holder on buddy box?[*] Once I have the 50 flight at over 100mph under my belt, do I just have to then fly a "qualification flight" in front of a Turbine Contest Director and 2 other waiver holder, so they can sign my waiver?[*] Once I get the turbine waiver, is the AMA liability insurance in effect for my jet? Or does the "turbine waiver" mean that my jet is not covered by the AMA liability insurance, but I'm allowed to fly at an AMA field?
[/ul]
You can see I'm kinda confused... [sm=confused.gif]
