Young Eagles and Background Security Checks

[combahee]

You may have not seen my follow-up to Ron's question. Your fly-ins, as I understand it here, are not specifically youth-oriented events or activities. So as the policy is written, you wouldn't need waivers.

More simply said, if an event is intended for kids it needs to follow the YPP, if the event is intended for adults you do not.

Dennis, your interpretation is NOT what is in the policy. I have read it over and over. It is pretty black and white in most areas. There is no exclusion for "primarily adult" activities. Your explanation is not what the membership is reading, they are reading the policy. See why this is such a mess?
Here is a prime example of what the EAA is afraid of.....


This young lady was part of the high school Air Force ROTC and she and another student just completed her first airplane flight. All of the kids are escorted to and from the aircraft by the pilot and a volunteer who also took this picture. All she could talk about was how great the experience was. This is what it is all about. Sorry didn't get a "cross shoulder hug"!
