Rang my FOI to seek clarification on this one.

He seemed to infer that a "scenic" flight could occur from A back to A, but if you need to make a landing at an intermediate point before returning the same passengers to A "thats a bit too far to be a scenic flight".

Is there a new arm to the definition of RPT?
- persons generally
- to & from fixed terminals
- too far to do without refuelling.

Is it the company's place to suggest a departure time, or does that make it a fixed schedule?

Is it the company's place to suggest a route for a scenic flight, or does that make it "to and from fixed terminals"?

My FOI suggested that it will all be clearer in a couple of years. I am hugely relieved.

I could send (another) letter to my local member but I am pretty sure that a serial pest will be the one that gets the regulator's full attention!
