Looks like you are going to wind your neck in. It is only a public transport flight if the pax are fare paying pax.
However I do not know what if any money was changing hands so I may have to wind mine in !!!!!!!
Guess an investigation may have been quite interesting, hey ho!


Nigel, are you an MP? Not doing anything wrong until book fiddling found out eh!
If I came to you for a pleasure flight, would you be telling me that I wouldn't be paying for a pleasure flight as such, but simply hiring the aircraft?

I refer to the CAA publication;
there are unscrupulous operators who choose to circumvent the system. It is very much in passengers’ interests to avoid being carried aboard illegal flights. Compliance with the higher safety standards demanded of AOC holders is expensive but any short-term cost advantage to the passenger in lower fares can so easily be outweighed should any accident or incident occur.
Oh look, mention of the words safety and standards! So maybe it's not just me that thinks an AOC holder would be a safer bet for my pleasure flight.

Do you do extensions?
