Attention: TDR Forum Junkies On this thread,
https://www.turbodieselregister.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=51355&pagenumber=4
it was mentioned on the last page that Indiana has different ATPA rules than Ohio.
I sent an e-mail to Kent Crowder of Scheids, and asked about them.
I got an answer from Rick Feicht of Full Pull Productions, Kent must have forwarded the e-mail to him.
As near as I can tell from their site, they will run this class on Friday, and an open class on Saturday.
Here are the rules, I see nothing about different states. :
If anybody has any other info on this, please post.
