Hope2,
I am not a member of NAC but I have been following this thread as an interested outsider. As such, I have seen no real reason to post before now. However, your suggestion that a charitable trust and a charitable organisation be set up intrigues me. How do you propose to make the objectives of such bodies satsify the Charity Commission's "Charitable Purpose" requirements?
I see you have ensured that the word "education" appears in your stated objectives. However the CC rules state that
Education in the charitable sense cannot include ........ the study of subjects which have no educational value
I wonder how they would categorise teaching people to fly?
Now that I have been drawn into posting - best wishes to the members of the NAC and good luck for the future.
