As far as I can see from the ANO and JARs, whilst highly unlikely in reality, if you have sufficient resources you can fly anything on a PPL, provided you hold the relevant ratings.
The methodology is quite simple (apart from the first bit!):
- Win the Euromillions after it's built up to £ 120,000,000
- PPL and hour build to 70 hours PIC
- Night Qualification
- MEP Class Rating
- Pass ATPL Theory
- IR
- MCC
- Type Rating onto B-737, etc.
Pay for your mate to do the same and buy yourself a B-737 and the two of you whizz your other mates around the golf courses, beaches and bars of the Med. Share the direct costs only with them and you're perfectly legal.
And now for the reality check - it ain't going to happen!!!
If anyone knows or thinks any different, I'd be grateful for the heads up.
