So, can you therefore confirm this 'checking' includes establishing that:
1) the pilot has a valid medical;
"I don't, I have a "declaration of fitness"
2) the pilot has a valid pilot's licence and a valid aircraft rating - certificate of test/check or experience;
OK.
3) the aeroplane has a valid certificate of airworthiness together with a valid airworthiness review certificate; and
Sorry, I operate Permit to Fly, so no CofA or ARC
4) the aeroplane has a valid scheduled maintenance inspection certificate of release to service and has not exceeded the airframe hours or time interval for its next scheduled maintenance inspection?
Permit to fly, don't have all that scheduled stuff!
You can't? On what basis, therefore, do you believe you are establishing that valid insurance is in place?
Got a copy of a piece of paper from a company registered in the Turkish republic of Northern Cyprus! (true, one of the biggest UK microlight insurers WAS putting all its business there, if I recall correct)
Ooops. I am now banned?
