Subject: HPAT Training: Problems Scheduling (LIVP)

I have had a terrible time getting HPAT recurrency training, and wonder if anyone else has experienced same?

We are encouraged to get recurrency training, and now my AIG insurance requires it for full coverage.  Yet to have my In Motion insurance coverage in effect, which I've paid for, I must wait until I get the training and remain grounded until then.

I have chosen not to sit for months (and it's been months) while I wait for an HPAT reply (that hasn't come) and then scheduling the training (sometime in the complicated future).  In fact, sometime ago, I had scheduled with an HPAT instructor but he cancelled at the last minute, leaving me "high and dry."

So I fly "bare" without insurance that I paid for.  Not a sensible situation all around.  I'm safe, but there is value in recurrency training that I have not been given the opportunity to benefit from.

ListServ replies should focus on the problem with scheduling training through HPAT, not my decision to fly "bare."

Note that Not in Motion hull coverage still requires recurrency training for liability coverage "in motion."

Also, regardless of my insurance coverage interest, we should all receive recurrency training even if we "self-insure."

Perhaps I'm the only one experiencing this obstacle.
