This event was not run by the AMA. It was run by a local soaring group. The only involvement of the AMA was that it took place on the AMA facility.
The AMA had nothing to do with this contest. It was run by a local soaring group that puts on a soaring contest series around the Midwest each summer. This was not the first time they had run contests at the Muncie facility. But the AMA had nothing to do with it beyond providing the place.
You do know AMA has Site Insurance for the landowners of chartering clubs, right?
How can you keep a straight face when you now say
the soaring guys activity and lawsuits have nothing to do with the landowner of a sanctioned event?
Wouldnt this be a non-issue if it happened at just some regular club field,
where we would all just say
Well, thats why we have site insurance-
to protect the landowners from lawsuits coming from the toy plane guys' activities on their land.
but,
folks just need to defend the shrine in indiana.
Any other landowner and we just point at the Site Insurance
