BackPacker,

Training is allowed in Permit aircraft, subject to some limits, that's not what I'm discussing.

My point is that at the time of the flight, I was not a group member, and my interpretation of the rules is that I have to be an owner of the aircraft to receive training in it.

Thanks monacam44, I had checked out the LAA website, as it seemed an obvious port of call for this issue. However, that leaflet states that only sole owners of Permit aircraft can receive training in it. Can you point me to any newer documentation that allows group owned permit aircraft to be used. The AIC W071/2009 mirrors the LAA document.

I know it's not instruction for gaining a licence or rating, but if I'm acting as Pu/t then there must be some form of training taking place!

Thank you ak7274. From what I understand of that document, to train legally the most recent maintenance must have been by a licensed engineer, which probably invalidates most permit aircraft!

As it stands I shalln't be logging anything. As I said, I can't have been P1 without a tailwheel differences training, and I can't have been Pu/t as I wasn't even a joint owner of the aircraft.

Thanks all
