All pilots will require insurance for this event.

If you are a member of an alternative drone insurer, unfortunately this is not sufficient. This is because other insurers (that we have found) do not cover competitive events.
You can either:
Sign up for full membership
BMFA here: https://bmfa.justgo.com
BTW Gold here: https://www.btwclub.co.uk/pricing-plans/list
