>From my experience you just apply for the licence (fill out an application form, pay your money and your licence is in the mail renewable every two years. Details on how to apply were on the GFA web site last time I checked.

Subject: RE: [Aus-soaring] Horsham Week / VIC State Comps Hi All, Whereas I thought I read somewhere that one qualified for a FAI comp license in part by entering regional competitions, a bit of a catch 22 this eh? No license, no compete, no compete no license! Why am I not surprised! One thing I have never been able to fathom is how States are allowed to modify the nationals rules at will, it seems to me they should be decided Nationally, and states should not be able to tack on their own extras, such as mandatory FLARM without National body approval of a rule change. It seems crazy to allow this to me, and I can think of no other sport that does this sort of thing. National comp rules should be a matter for national consideration, not the whim of a state body.

It is my understanding that in order to be able to use the GFA competition insurance cover, all competing pilots must have an FAI competitor's licence. This is why all competitions in Qld (including the Easter competition) require competitor's licences. -- Robert Hart [EMAIL PROTECTED] +61 (0)438 385 533 http://www.hart.wattle.id.au _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list Aus-soaring@lists.internode.on.net To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring The material contained in this email may be confidential, privileged or copyrighted.
