Default Should AMA Insurance Cover Commercial Training

If an AMA member takes compensation for training another AMA member to fly, should their AMA insurance be in effect? The AMA does not currently cover such training.

If a member wants his instructor to be at the field at certain times, or is willing to pay for his undivided attention, is there any reason that coverage should not be extended?

Traditionally, training has been free. The only price was the student having to stand and wait a lot. Particularly, with the advent of good ARF's, we are seeing less patience.

Where are the pitfalls of such coverage? What other potentials are there for abuse?
