Well we have been down this road before and as I said before I think its unfair when
a sign off person can make up their own rules. Although the waiver process has been
refined for the better it must always be fair. Also IMO I doubt any wavier signer will
be sued if someone they sign of has a crash and hurts someone its just to much of
a long shot.

IMO what the AMA should do is produce a video that shows just what is required by
the appllcant once the appllcant has studied the video then they would make an
appt with a sign off person who would the video the appllcants test flight and submit
a copy of the video to the AMA.

Have you been turned down?
I now have my waiver but a couple of years ago when I first wanted to get one I found a
lot different opinions about what type of plane you could use and if could buddy box
for the test or if your test plane had to have retracts ect ect.

My point was that all CD's should have the same requirements but I dont have a problem
with being asked to repeat a manuver.

I currently have a Boomerang Intro that im enjoying very much.
