Hi,
I have been asked by someone if they can fly "trial flights" from a local airfield.
The person said that their historic aircraft is on a permit to fly and that all flights will be as unpaid extras along with a historic aircraft club membership.
This is, I have been told, how Jet Provost and Hunter flights can be offered.
The pilot is not an instructor, the airfield is unlicenced.
I suppose, because I teach on microlights (which are permit aircraft and can be used for training from unlicenced field) he thought I'd know the answer.
But I don't. Sounds like bending rules a bit far to me. Anyone know chapter and verse, and how JP flights are offered?
Very best to all
