Hoss,
This may be picking the fly s**t out of the pepper, but I am a club designated intro pilot, it doesn't say that I have to be an intro pilot for the club field that we are using. This is how I look at it.
You can play the Philadelphia Lawyer as you wish. (Just not on MY Turff
)
from AMA PDf 917
"A non-AMA member may fly at a chartered club site and receive member liability insurance protection as long as he/she is flying under the direct supervision of a club-designated Introductory Pilot Instructor. The Introductory Pilot Instructor must hold a current AMA Open membership with the “Intro Pilot” classification. Supervised instruction must take place at an AMA chartered club’s site, and must be closely supervised. The non-AMA member will have the same liability insurance ...."
Intro Pilot Instructors:
5. Proceed as usual with your program of flight instruction. The student is covered under the AMA’s liability
insurance policy, as long as he/she is flying at the club site under your direct, one-on-one supervision, for a
period of 60 days from the first session.
Your "look" could well be twisted to your interpretation. AMA staffers are not noted for their ability to write without leaving some holes. You know, kind of like a congressman when he is writing law for the Internal Revenue Code. He makes sure there are loop-holes for himself. Then you and I can find those loop-holes and save a few $$ each year. It's up to you just how far you wish to push it! [>:] I know what the AMA wants and I go with that. IRS, now that is a different ball-game! [:-]
Edit; misuse of verb form.
