Explained today by an FOI that charter disappears in 2015 and anyone who carries a passenger for money from point to point is RPT. Even an out and back joy flight is RPT if it lands at a different place during the flight.
"slight changes to the operations manual" was all that was allegedly required.
I said nothing.
So that is the solution to the CAR206 grey area- there will be no such thing as charter, from the point of view of reduced supervision and cost burden. All will require an RPT AOC and associated maintenance.
