Of course, unless the EAA changes the YEYPP drastically between now and then, this requirement will never be enforced because I will simply refuse to continue my participation in this debacle.

Since I seem to work for the EAA now, how do I get the EAA to start covering part of my insurance and MX? See when a company starts to dictate HOW a person can do a job, that organization now becomes an employer. "In this case, the Ninth Circuit said that FedEx controlled the drivers and that they were independent contractors in name only." http://www.forbes.com/sites/robertwo.../#321e50a15f5a

And Google and Uber are facing the same situation. What was basically decided was that when an organization starts dictating how a person can do the job, they are no longer independent.

Makes me wonder if a lawsuit is needed? I think the better option is just to abandon the YE program and start a program outside of EAA. Call it Young Phoenix... I rises from the ashes of the YE program. Maybe the AOPA should get involved?
