The company can provide you with the plane, completely free of charge to you. Or you can use your own plane and charge the entire cost of it to the company (Annuals and all).
For the taxman you have to account for business and private mileage separately; that a whole issue but it is separate from the legality of flying on business.
That's interesting as my accountant told me the whole lot would be a benefit in kind or taxed as per Company Car at n% of the value of the aircraft. I'm keen to know more, got any pointers?
