What shape is your flight line?
Thank you, wen friend, for that most illucidating diatribe.
Hey Jerry, I think I've seen your field... what you need is some nice trees like we have up here! Anyway, thanks for the input.
I'd love to see my club make a conscious decision to either obey the guidelines as published, publish a concensus interpretation and see how if it's good enough, or just state outright that we won't enforce that rule.
I really thought that a lot of clubs would be in this boat, but maybe most people everywhere are like most people where I live... the rules say that the insurance doesn't hold when you're flying in violation of the rules, so make sure you plan your mishaps to be on the legal side of the flight line and you don't have to worry.
