Yeah, I figured that was behind Tripoli's evident present desire to have specific policies on access to the "HPR Pad Area" as such (a point on which I don't think the NAR rules are quite as explicit)... So do the new TRA rules require that a candidate for TRA certification (as a "Non-HPR Flier") "escorted" to the pad area? (Or does this fall under the same category as non-certified individuals being specifically allowed to buy HPR motors for the purpose of making certification attempts?) Seems like it would be good to get a clarification (as Jack said he planned to) from TRA HQ on whether an NAR "junior cert" candidate with a parent (HPR-certified and over 18) would count as a "Non-HPR Flier ... escorted by a HPR Flier" for the purpose of the "2-18.1.1 Exception". -dave w
