FNG,

Thanks for that - disclaimer noted.

All terribly sensible when you get down to it. I am glad that my understanding of the simplified version from the PPL law books was broadly correct.

My company keeps threatening to send me regularly to Gloucester (from Watford) on business. I am seriously considering flying if they do (with my car acting as backup when the weather is bad) and am glad that if someone asks that I could take them too.

I doubt my company would cough up for the cost (if I talk sweetly maybe they'll pay me what it would cost to drive) and I don't expect it to be a practical form of travel - but its the sort of flight I would make at weekends anyway so doing it on company time and avoiding a boring car journey sounds like a good deal to me.

Thanks again,

AliB
