The problem here is that the pilots doing the flying are the guys desperate to fly full stop and will take any opportunity. They will listen to the men behind the scenes taking the money saying that its all OK and that its a loop hole, a grey area, a private flight whatever the excuse is and go and do it. I have another friend flying a Pilatus that I have warned recently about the type of flying he is doing and I could see it go in one ear and out the other as the seduction of being able to fly for free is so great. He assured me because it was on the CI register that it was not covered by the CAA and AOC requirements. Until we can make the pilots understand and learn to say NO we are on hiding to nowhere and blaming the regulator for lack of oversight is unfair......
