Tins.

It's called an "interposed entity". CASA seem reluctant to go there where freight is concerned and only goes there in selected cases where passengers are concerned. CAR 206 would not be one of CASA's more concise pieces of legislation!

I suspect Bank Running would be RPT operations via an interposed entity if one were to consider the subsequent Court findings in the October 1994 loss of Rockwell Commander 690B VH-SVQ.

("The flight was planned as a regular public transport flight from Williamtown to Lord Howe Island." and "The investigation determined that the flight was not a regular public transport flight as the company did not hold the required approval from the New South Wales Air Transport Council to operate such flights over the Williamtown to Lord Howe Island route.")

It also seems to be the way the UK international holiday market operates. Travel agency sells individual low cost tickets to a holiday destination, then charter a high capacity aircraft to perform the service. Perhaps the UK CAA has more clearly defined legislation to cover these operations?
