Maybe so, but if something goes wrong, it's the insurance company that
decides if they're going to pay for it...

And for most clubs, if the insurance company decides to cancel their
coverage, there is no option other than to go out of business. There just
aren't a lot of companies out there who are willing to insure a flying club
these days, and thus the club needs to keep its insurance company happy.
It's just one of the realities of running a flying club. I didn't say I lke
it, but I do have to work with the realities of the situation.

Especially since Avemco is already on our backs about our Lance - at first
they said they wouldn't insure it (or any other complex 6 seater) at all,
then they said we have to list the 8 pilots who've flown it more than 15
hours this year on the insurance policy and nobody else can fly it. The
other 42 members of the club aren't going to be happy about that.
