hour building cost sharing..
heres a question from a nieve ppl wannabe.
I know that you cannot charge for customers to fly with you to make a profit but sharing the cost is acceptable so is it not possible to advertise flights on a cost sharing basis to gain hours on a licence?
im guessing theres a pretty quick answer to this one but i thought id test the water with it anyway.

From the Air Navigation Order (http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/CAP393.PDF), 160(3)(c):
(c) no information shall have been published or advertised prior to the
commencement of the flight other than, in the case of an aircraft operated by a flying club, advertising wholly within the premises of such a flying club in which case all the persons carried on such a flight who are aged 18 years or over shall be members of that flying club;

if you can only advertize for cost sharing flights within a flying club what about the "spare seats" thread ? i assume that if you put on there im going to so & so and have a spare seat you cant expect whoever comes along to split the cost. I was going to see if anyone from the isle of wight wanted to share but i can only ask within my flying club - is this correct?

No you can advertise spare seats anywhere you want. You cant advertise cost sharing outside of the club. I often have a spare and if someone wants to fill it FOC then they are welcome. After all everyone needs to experiance sheer terror at some stage..........

Does PPrune count as the "flying club" notice board?
