Problem is if you want to generate some charter income your screwed.
Not so, you can operate a non-VH aircraft on an Australia AOC, airlines (and others) do it all the time. This is as a result of a Federal Court decision. Of course CASA will tell you no, and make it as difficult as possible if you try.
Administrative obstruction (all in the name of air safety, you understand) is a powerful weapon, the countervailing weapon is measured in cubic dollars. Enforcing your rights at law can get very expensive when you are dealing with CASA.
Must look into this ZK idea a little more, how expensive is nzud for first of type?
Email them, and ask them, CAA NZ are very good at quoting
fixed prices and timescales for such matters. Not the open ended charges of CASA.
Needless to say, CASA do their very best to ignore the intent of the TTMRA (which NZ honours as intended), you only have to look at the impositions in the Civil Aviation Act 1988, intended to undermine the intent of the TTMRA.
Tootle pip!!
