ShyTorque, as an ATPL holder, I am fully conversant with the various requirements for undertaking both commercial and private flights, thank you. I made no reference to either commercial or private flights in my comments, even though I believe that JTobias's original observations were intended to apply principally to private flights.
No offence meant; I wasn't suggesting that it was a lack of understanding on
your part.
p.s. there's a space on your profile to add your licence type, it can help to avoid any uncertainty.
