There is also an approx 77 hour TT helicopter pilot who operates out of Doncaster. Using an R22/44, he appears to advertise what can only be described as pleasure flights and helicopter experience flights to racecourses, hotels etc. Now I'm not saying he isn't able to do them legally, my point is it appears to be a blatant display of 'no AOC because I don't need one', and Wingly should be on top of this to put a stop to it. But they generate revenue from each flight so why would they even want to stop a flight that was technically 'legal'?

I wouldn't allow any member of my family or friends to get in an R22/44 with someone with 77hrs TT.

I was sure that you needed 100hrs on type to be allowed to fly with Wingly. Maybe they've changed the rules.
