I'm not quite clear on what point you were trying to make.

So, I went back & read all the posts in this thread, and I see posts written from at least 3 distinct perpectives.

One, the original intent of the thread, was to post some helpful guidelines for instructors who are trying to help beginning pilots learn.

A second perspective was that of the person who has liability for the club and field, (officers, trainers, field owners, etc) and is interested in minimizing liability for the club, officers, trainers and field owners.

A third perspective I see in these posts (probably the most vocal) is that of the person who assumes he has no responsibility like liability, and accepts no training responsibilities.

I am an instructor, and have developed my own method to help beginners maximize the useful life of their first plane. I have been a club officer, and understand the liability issues.

I find the posts from the third perspective flatly annoying. If you don't like a rule, become an officer and instructor, and propose a change to the rule at your club. And if you don't belong to a club which has rules and offers training... why are you posting to a thread which was posted from the first perspective?

Just my two bits worth.
