Icarus & Torres
Just a note on that UK charter company.....I would have thought a couple of things.....first they operate on a UK AOC..and are subject to OZ laws only at point of departure...secondly under a Uk AOC, a charter company can operate to a schedule, as long as it is ticketed via it agencies..and not at point of departure(thats the general gist...I think)...and finally given it was operating under a UK AOC....then surely the ICAO freedoms laws apply as agreed to by Oz as an ICAO state.
