In the exception it states non HPR fliers are allowed with an escort of a
High power flyer and in Tripoli to become a high power flyer you have to be
18 years of age so that was there mistake in assuming people knew this
already but I have already asked for clarification because I don't want to
tell a Father and son or Mother or Daughter no you can't fly your Jr cert
program but the reality is Tripoli has always been a High Power organization
and never adopted the Jr program and this did not happen by accident.

Hmmm... I note that the section of the rules you quoted in your previous
message includes the following:
"2-18.1.1 Exception: Non-HPR Fliers are allowed in the High Power Launch
Area if escorted by a HPR Flier."
I wonder whether this might be applied to allow a "junior cert"
flier to set up a rocket on the HPR pads under the supervision of a
certified mentor, as a "Non-HPR Flier ... escorted by a HPR Flier." (Perhaps
I'm missing something but this seems like it might be a reasonable
interpretation of the rule as written...)
