If the chap at Bournemouth is the same one I am thinking of..
He came in non-competitive on a Wet Lease basis (close to 12k) for 80 - 100 hours with added landing fees on top and Bournemouth is a bit far out from Essex.
Has anyone bought their own plane for said purposes - with some reliable pilot friends whom you know personally?
I'm not sure how this would work - probably not as I would hope!
Scoobs.
