Expenses
I often go away for business and i claim all my expenses. My company are willing to pay back aircraft hire expenses.
How legal is that on a PPL?
It is not like i am charging for the flight and the company are not charging for the flight...actualy they pass on the travel and substinance cost to the customer.
If i can legaly get away with then what a result.
