Yes those are them, they pretty much cover the technical requirements. But there are also new rules on getting and maintaining a waiver.

First, a huge safety improvement is allowing buddy boxing of any AMA member by any turbine waiver holder. Looks like this can even be done at events, so there are many opportunities for people to get stick time, either on their planes or someone else's. Also, you can get you turbine waiver "check flights" on a turbine powered plane (of course on the buddy box)

Turbine CDs as we know them are gone, and now the waiver applicant must get sigs from a CD that holds a waiver, and another waiver holder.

Everyone must recertify each year, with a statement that you have flown at least 20 logged turbine flights in the last 24 months. A witness must sign this too, but the witness need no have seen the flights (I think). For the first recert (which we will ALL have to do) we will need to get both sigs notarized. Subsequant recerts do not need to be notorized. The intent of this is to raise the level of "seriousness" of the sign off, as many think that in the past there may have been a little too much "buddy buddy" stuff on some of these sign offs. A little inconvenient, but I will take it.

As for who was there, from the AMA, Carl, Ilona, Doug Holland, , Insurance Rep, Charlie Bauer (EC VP), Rich Hanson (my VP), Sandy Frank (EC VP) (at the 4:00 o'clock)...plus a bucnh of members, maybe 20 or 25 at the morning meeting, and I heard maybe 10 at the afternoon.
