Terms of Reciprocal Club Agreements
We recognise that the organisation of foot launch gliding in the U.K. is based almost entirely on goodwill and co-operation. We therefore ask you to observe the following guidelines in order to maximise the enjoyment of all concerned.
-
Such membership provides flying and social benefits to full members of both clubs.
-
Reciprocal membership carries no voting rights and is not extended to temporary or associate members of either club.
-
Only fly those sites marked in the club site guide as being available to Reciprocal Members.
-
Reciprocal members should be familiar with the relevant Sites Guide and before each days flying are requested to either visit the clubs web site or speak to a 'home' member to check for any current restrictions or recommendations.
-
When visiting a reciprocal site, we ask pilots to introduce themselves to any 'home' members in attendance and provide proof of membership if requested.
-
Each editor of the clubs magazines will send a copy to the reciprocal editor for the dissemination of information.
-
Each club secretary will send a copy of any appropriate blanket e-mail notification messages to the reciprocal secretary for forwarding to their members.
-
Each clubs web site will have a direct link to the reciprocal clubs site.
-
These guidelines will be published on the web sites of all reciprocal clubs and in a monthly newsletter so that everyone is aware of them.
Remember - the success of foot launch gliding in this country depends on every pilot taking a responsible attitude to where, when and how he or she flies. Good sites can easily be lost by careless or selfish attitudes.
