Dear all,

I was wondering if any of the companies at Retford Gamston Airport require safety pilots.

Basically the story is, I am just finishing off my JAR Instrument rating and wondering what is required to be a safety pilot.

Can't speak for the individual operations - but they won't necessarily be single crew? If they're being operated as public transport it'll be a two (rated) crew operation.

If not - nothing wrong with trying to get to know the operator and sit in the RHS. You wouldn't be a 'Safety pilot' per se, just an supernumery that might be allowed to handle the controls and the R/T. Unloggable, but valuable experience all the same

Yes, RT and anything else would be great experience.
