by enforcing the Freedoms of the Air - as everywhere else does to UK operators.
Everywhere else? Where? Could you enlighten me?
To all the jealous gentlemen here that think they can destroy us (coorperate flight departments) and thus get the business: no. Won´t happen. Even if the EASA runs as mad at us as JAA did 10+ years ago at you.
Our standards are high, most of the time they surpass the regulated operators by miles. (there are the odd ones too, I admit that, but the AOC holders are worse by percentage)
I have been in AOC ops for 17 years, part thereof as DO, MM, GOM and TM, worked for on contract for 3 companies and did freelance for another 4.
I do fly coorperate since 2007. I guess I know what I talk about.
