There is a thread on this forum about sharing costs for joyrides.
Is it possible to take passengers while training, and sharing some of the costs with them?
Quite a few people joy ride around Bournemouth, and would be happy with a pupil pilot.

As long as the pilot (PIC) pays an equal share of the costs (or more). You must avoid the situation where the pilot gains anything financially by taking passengers. If the flight were a lesson with an instructor then the instructor would have to agree and of course all subject to weight and balance.
If you are a pilot who would like to offer another pilot or student pilot the chance to fly with you on a cost share basis then we have a notice board for this very purpose in the flying club where you can place your offer.
Offers like this are very welcome!

Without getting into information overload - suffice to say obtaining, storing and using data which personally identifies individuals places a number of important legal requirements on the business concerned especially if the data is not for the sole purpose of invoicing. More so when such data is of individuals who are not customers of the business.
OSFS are genuine people as such I can trust them to have a look their obligations, specifically at the security of the data, just in case they missed anything.
OSAF - thanks for popping in and confirming the position of the people at BFC and OSFS. The last thing anyone needs is the ghost of OSFC hanging about continuing to have influence.
I'd just like to say the BFC members grass field training session we did there the other day was great fun. The pilots learnt a lot and the fear of grass was totally banished, so I expect many of them will return to sample again the delights over at Old Sarum Airfield - thank you OSAF!
