Large Rocket Scheme
UKRA is please to announce the introduction of a its Large Rocket Scheme (LRS).
This is proposed as a means by which insurance cover may be obtained for very large rocket projects (> 10240Ns impulse) through our existing BMFA insurance. All projects are required to be mentored from conception and the involvement of the UKRA Safety & Technical committee is essential. Full details are included in the application forms.
We have a firm undertaking from the BMFA that if the steps outlined in the application process are followed explicitly, insurance cover can be granted. However, as this is a new, as yet untested venture for UKRA and the BMFA, there could be unforeseen problems to contend with. We would urge all flyers wishing to use the scheme to submit applications as early as possible. Flyers should consider that until we have a proven track record of this scheme in practice, insurance cover cannot be guaranteed. Indeed, due to the nature of these large projects, guaranteed insurance may never be possible.
A new page for the scheme has been created here.
