I dont know if I am supposed to laugh or what. There is a huge percentage of charters where the individuals have clubbed together to pay for it. It becomes a sole charter when an individual makes the contract and pays. The laws governing this were never designed to prevent this, and how could they. Without splitting hairs, folks that do this are not commiting a heinous crime, they are simply trying to economise, this helps keep pilots and all others in aviation employed. What do you find unacceptale about a group of people all contributing to the charter of an aircraft? Some friends of mine do it every year to get to the F1 and back by helicopter.
