it's not running an airline. A virtual airline is much simpler. You just have to think outside the box.
OK, I'm trying really hard to think outside the box, and at this point it seems to me that if you are going to be running a virtual airline then I think that you will find that you are going to need an AOC ..... refer S.15.20 of the CASA AOC Handbook Volume 2 - Flying Operations.
And if that's the case then you need to understand S.28 of the Act, which at this point I'm not so sure that you do.
And that all means that you are going to have a fair bit of working capital right from the outset to get your virtual airline up and running, which presumably you and your mates understand?
Not sure why you can't grasp this very simple concept.
