RE: New A/C weight limts = Good News
I have a question after reading this:
Classifications LMA-1 and LTMA-1 (55 pounds to 77.2 pounds) will allow for a self-inspection by the owner of the LMA or a Large Model Aircraft Inspector (LMAI). It will require two demonstration flights in front of two observers. The owner can serve as one of the observers, as long as he/she is not the pilot of the model. The other observer has to be an AMA Contest Director (CD), Leader Member (LM) or Large Model Aircraft Inspector (LMAI).
If the owner is also the pilot, I read it to say that he can perform his own inpections but not be an observer. Therefore, do both observers now have to be LMAI, CD, or Leader Member?
