BREAKING NEWS: Regional Airlines to Allow Private Pilots Free Airfare to Fly Right Seat ? Aviation News That Matters

Folks,
Everything old is new again ---- I flew RHS on a PPL, in a Bristol Freighter doing night newspaper delivery in UK in the early 1960s, all quite legal --- the system was later regularized as a "Pilot's Assistant" or some similar title operating single pilot IFR in such as small corporate jets, as a "one pilot and one assistant" crew --- the insurance companies were right on side.
Tootle pip!!
