M20E,
Imagine the difficulties involved with transporting prostitutes! |
OK when you read point 7 its clear
vii. the carriage of goods otherwise than for the purposes of trade; Or...... travelling the bush on your pvt holiday, your plane breaks down and the LAME from a local town drops everything, fills his plane (pvt) with parts and comes to your rescue. He flies back, so you continue and a week or two later you get a bill for the call out. Now if he invoices you for labour....its all good, but what if he invoices you for a fuel pump! J |
Jabawocky,
Sorry missed 7 . OK no goods to be carried for purpose of trade . LAME cant charge for fuel pump without busting regs. |
Basically it says it's not a pvt flight if goods carried on the plane are to be traded and are currently the property of the pilot, owner or hirer.
ie: you cant take things in a plane to a different place if you are going to trade/sell them. |
In the first scenario where the item has already been sold and youre just being friendly and cool and taking it to them, I guess the court would be looking at things like market values of the items compared to what you paid and how closely the difference relates to the cost of the flight.

"I have spoken with CASA legal office and they advise..." OLC does not have the delegation to decide whether a prosecution is in the "public interest". The Act and CARs directs them to act in the event of a breach of the law. "My "tools of trade" are my brain cells (hard to believe, I know, but true none-the-less)! I have been carting them around the countryside for 35+ years, as PIC of various aircraft." |
:ooh::confused::\:{

But who would pay the Fringe Benefits Tax? :} :}
|
So a bunch of LAME's I know own their own aircraft and contract themselves out.. ie fly themselves and their tools out to remote area's to fix break downs, once everything is fixed, they fly themselves back home etc.. Sure it would be nice for charter companies to pick up the flights, but if said individual owned his/her own plane and was a pvt pilot, surely this can't be illegal..

Don't make the mistake of thinking Private Operation = Private License. |
I really don't see what John Travolta has to do with this topic, but....
From the FAA Database he has.... Private Pilot certificate for single and multi engine land aircraft with instrument rating. He has type ratings in B707, B720, CE-500, G1159, HS-125 and LR-JET Limitations on his certificate are CE-500 VFR Only B707 SIC priveleges only That is from the FAA on their own website. He also employs a professional crew to fly the aircraft when needed or when he prefers to be with his guests in the back. |
As I said earlier
forgive me for simply highlighting the complete shambles of thought associated with the "Categorisation of Operations" from within CASA itself. Based on the discussion here since I posted the above, I see we can safely add that "the Industry" is just as confused as CASA is.;) tipsy.........:{ |
Lasiorhinus:
If the 'group of mates' including the pilot exceeds six people, its not a private operation. Doesnt matter who pays what. The implication of CAR 2 (7) (D) (vi) as itcurrently stands is that, as a private pilot, I can't fly anything bigger (with a full pax load) than a BE58? If this is the case what is the point of any private pilot either owning a larger aircraft or seeking the associated type endorsement? How do the corporate high flyers get around in a Challenger 601, as a private operation, carrying more than 6 company employees? I'd really like to know the answers to these questions from a qualified source. |
Great - it's finally come to this. He wants the answers from a " QUALIFIED SOURCE"
So an answer from the 14 year old asking in R&N about whether or not an A330 being quieter than an A320 as it roars above his cubby house is using FLEX Thrust wouldn't be good enough for you then Mr " I want a qualified source on PPRuNe " This party is over. Qualified sources indeed!!! :p :p :p |
QSK, licence category is irrelevant, it is the "Categorisation of Operations" being discussed here. I have a CPL and have conducted both commercial and private operations.
It is also irrelevant as to how many seats are in or occupied on an aircraft, specifically if there is no remuneration/cost share/contribution from any non crew occupants. I have been a guest on Dicks Citation and have never been asked or felt obliged, to contribute. tipsy:= |
tipsy2,
If you look at page 31 of the CAR 1988 Amdt 14 March 2007 (7A(b)I think you will find any flight with more than 6 pob is not private. |
Tipsy2,
M20E is unfortunately correct. Not that long ago there was no restriction on the number of people. Hence rich people could buy their Caravans, Citations and even Chieftans and Navajos and cart their mates around free. Not anymore. Someone told me that the change was prompted by the GA8, which can carry eight and is well within the capability of the average PPL. Sorry, I can't remember who it was that told me, so I can't verify. Walrus |
Missed that in my amdts:{
There goes my DC3 days I guess (even though there is no payment). Probably have to sell the A380 as well:rolleyes::rolleyes: tipsy:O |
I wish somebody in CASA would write regs in plain (plane?) english.
From what I can gather a reasonable person would have to assume that "Goods for Trade" would be defined as "goods for sale or exchange", because if it wasn't defined that way a Doctors taking his bag, or an engineer his calculator flying themselves to a workplace would be an offence.... In fact, it would make that famous aerial Pastor who flies around the Outback ministering to his flock a criminal if he took his Bible, if he didn't have a commercial licence. |
