Default RE: Waiver question

As an individual
If you are flying at a county field with no AMA Charter in effect and no specific county rules about trubines or anything else such as noise levels, etc
then you can legally fly at the county facility without breaking any City/County laws.
As a member of the AMA which is essentially a liability insurance, Flying a turbine without a waiver is not
allowed anywhere.
In case of an accident, Amongst other things, your Insurace/AMA will decline any claims under the pretext of breaching your AMA/Insurance agreement.


With all this said,in my personal opinion, if you have any assets, It would be wise to retain an umbrella insurace on to of your Home Owners. For a few hundred dollars extra per year
you can get a $1,000,000 to $5,000,000 coverage. The AMA coverage is not nearly enough for a serious accident.

BTW: Gordon
55ibs max all up weight and 200mph max speed. That would probabely be their first answer.
