Strange Enquiry - Caution Urged
Had a call at the club today from a middle eastern sounding gentleman, asking to rent a four seater and pilot to fly over London on the opening day of the olympics.
I declined cos of all the agro with flight plans etc and said a sight seeing tour of London single engine was not likely to happen!
Was willing to pay good money he said. When I told him to try other clubs closer to London he got upset and starting ranting.
I have reported it to the relevant authorities just as a precaution but thought others should know just in case. It was his phrase "XXX XXX XXXX " that rang the alarm bells.
Besides we don't have an AOC anyway for that kinda stuff.
