Hi,
I have often kept an eye on Pprune without registering before, but I now find a need to register as I am trying to get some professional information.
I have been asked to look into the possibility of managing a private jet on behalf of some clients. It would be for their own personal use, with the possibility of making it available for charter.
Is there a good place or good people I can speak to confidentially to get information on the following....?
Registering the aircraft (G-reg for charter, or VP-reg/N-reg for private ops?)
Looking into an AOC if required, or using someone else's.
Crewing the aircraft (How many sets of crew for the aircraft and sourced from where?)
Basing the aircraft at a suitable airport (Where runway length, hangarage, cleaning, maintenance, fuel, flight planning are available)
Finding the right maintenance firm or sourcing the correct engineers to help keep in the aircraft in the air and perform checks when the hours are up.
Looking into any issues regarding flight plans/overflights/permits.
And would staff working on this require any specific qualifications or simply have to have a good working knowledge of CAA/JAR etc etc.
At the moment, I have been asked not to go to any firms offering all of these services already (the usual FBOs) but to look into this myself.
Would the CAA's SRG be a good place to start?
Can anyone on here help me?
Much appreciated.
