Default RE: AMA Buddy-Box Rule

Hey, Stick.

Well, we all have our own ideas about how we would like things to be. In your other thread Ol Hoss laid it out just as is it. Between the lawyers and the insurance company from whom AMA buys your and your landlord's insurance this comes to be.

Actually, as stated, a non-AMA member can have 60 days of free, unlimited flights of their own, or any AMA member's airplane, with any of your club's or any other club's Intro Pilots, just for giving some info and signing a document. I do not see where the beef is.

As to Hoss's personal opinions, our club lets the Intro Student fly without joining. After the 60 days, they need to be a member or they can just watch. It is a local thing.
