What, if any, are the regs for carrying passengers in Hungarian registered ex military aircraft?
Thanks.

Hi SID yes I can answer that it's easy
Passengers are allowed to be carried
The same as when the same aircraft was in the uk on the g reg with a full c of a but whereas the UK CAA allowed commercial operations/air taxi ect the Hungarians will not they only allow private use
You may ask why take this aircraft off the UK. G reg I also know the answer to that one when the owner bought it he looked for a maintenance company with expertise in operation of alouette helicopters there was virtually no one in the uk that had any on their books and he found a maintence company that was JAR 145 in Hungary that had 16 alouettes on their books and he arranged for them to maintain his helicopter , there was also a problem with instructors / examiners for yearly LPC they were also very thin on the ground with the U.K. CAA frequently having to give special authorisation for training and exams
The Hungarian CAA had a few examiners and training organisations to do type ratings

Both of these made it a no brainier where to register it

Sorry I forgot to add it's cheaper too
