If the remedy is in our hands, then what is that remedy?
Having re-read the posts, I can't remember seeing a mention of one of the biggest sections of sometimes considered illegal flying. The Good Old 'Trial lesson'. You know the one. The one where a woman comes along with 'darling' husband and kids, having been bought the 'trial lesson' for a birthday present.
She has no extra money so couldn't afford 20 Cigarettes or another alcopop, never mind take up flying.
Anyway, the instructor takes her flying for 0.5 or 1 hr whatever, she doesn't want to take the controls because she is slightly afraid. During the course of the flight she wants to take some pictures of her house (she just lives next to the airport).
So, is this illegal flying? Carrying a passenger who doesnt wish to learn to fly. Should this be done with an AOC? Public Transport cat a/c?
In all honesty I personally don't care. I don't fly anymore anyway.
