What about the waivers I sign before I enter the contest? Are you saying they have no standing. Udo In a word, no. Those waivers slow down suits by about 5 minutes, especially if they can prove some sort of negligence. Your waiver also says nothing about contest organizer's liability to third parties. If you crash and do damage to someone on the ground, they can sue contest organizers, and your waiver of liability to you has nothing to do with it. For example, consider the glider that ran into a spectator at tonopah at takeoff. The spectator can sue the contest organizers and the SSA. BB My club was recently looking at 'meet' insurance as described by Costello to cover neglience that might not be otherwise covered by our existing policies, including premises liability coverage as we own our airfield. If hosting a contest 'meet' insurance is available for around $800 (around $500 if SSA sanctioned). Frank Whiteley
