BIK
We are both right on the Van 1. I flew then in NZ where it had 14 passenger seats and they are now allowed to do this IFR. The Grand Van has and extra row so 17 seats though I was in one in PNG with 22 on board, all the kids!!. But for IFR and single PIlot there are indeed various restrictions on them around the world. Up to 9 or 13 Pax Max and often VFR with Pax. If you have a 1000 metre strip though they are about the only thing on the list. And we missed the mighty Trilander BN3
. One Pilot 3 engines and 17 PAX, what a machine.
