I still haven't read it all but either way our launch system does not use
none of these

It references the switched in regards to motor ignition and seems to refer
to the launch controller:
2-12.6 A rocket motor shall not be ignited by any of the following:
a. A switch that uses mercury.
b. "Pull wires" that disconnect or complete a circuit.
c. "Pressure roller" switches
----
It does not make reference to av-bar arming switches.

Hey All I have attached the 2012 Tripoli sanctioned rules and we are a
Tripoli club so everyone needs to read them, print them carry them or
however you want to help enforce and use our newest rules, I will get time
this week to really study them but I noticed a couple of quick ones like
Section 2-18 Participation now reads in part:
"Non-HPR Fliers are allowed in the High Power Launch Area if escorted by
a HPR Flier. A HPR Flier may escort and be accompanied by not more than
two (2) non-HPR fliers in the High Power Launch Area. The HPR flier
escort is required to monitor the actions of the escorted non-HPR
fliers, and the escort is fully responsible for those actions and for
the safety of those escorted."
There are other changes. For example, the use of mercury switches, pull
wires, and roller switches have now been banned. This means there are
various products by different manufactures that can no longer be used
for air-starts.
I don't want to due a review until I have had time to look the complete
pages over.
