Default USA - Private Pilot glider tow compensation

Thanks, Phil.
Believe that's the first time I've seen an RAS posting out of the
head office, and appreciate the input.
The next big US contest (Seniors) is a few months off, so there's time
to discover what the insurance company has to say.
Apologies to Harris Hill,
Jim

Bottom line: nothing bad has happened and possibly something really
good. *But we are still sorting it out and it is all a bit premature
to be talking about what this means. *We will publish something on
this in Soaring magazine and on the SSA website when we get a clearer
picture of how the FAA and the insurance situations all fit together.
