That is in the face of most of the USofA law, you are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
Try to tell that to a traffic court judge.......:-(

Totally I'm glad I'm not on the US TC, no matter what you do, you seem to be wrong.
I wonder how many are "lookers" vs. "contestants"?

I feel participants should drive the rules, not lookers.
No, I have not been contacted on rules for a few years, I have not been registered for a contest, only flew a day or so as, "edumacated baggage" as I wasn't current enough to be safe to me or others.
