I am aware of the AMA rules regarding non members being allowed to fly. it is not prohibited, It's just not covered by insurance. For most of the flights he was hooked up to a buddy box. He did solo and take off and land by himself. It was after that that he never returned. All but 1 of the flights we were alone at the field. I saw no danger in allowing him to fly. The goal was to get him to fly at a club where he could get help and learn the safe way to fly. And for all I know he may have joined another club.
