A GREAT question.
Still waiting on my question to the EAA. What are they going to do if my personal information is stolen because of the requirements they MADE me provide? Are they going to pay to repair my credit? What did I get in response from HQ when I emailed them? SILENCE.
This is also a GREAT question.... "If a pilot completes the background check, and the online course, takes a youth flying and later a complaint is filed against him or her, what steps will the EAA or their insurer do to defend the pilot?
My understanding from reading the insurance and the waiver is the EAA will not get involved unless the EAA directly is sued and the EAA will only defend itself. Correct? So what good is any of this to the pilot?"
So what is the EAA going to do to protect the pilot? Or is this just about the EAA protecting itself at our cost?
Basically.... What benefit is all this BS for the pilots?
