Apart from a piece of paper what does an AOC involve. I find it a bit odd that flying schools for instance can't do pleasure flights but hey if you want to have a go then thats ok.

It involves formal responsibility through assigned post holders (such as Chief Pilot and Accountable Manager). It involves formalised practices in all aspects of flying in an operations manual, and training and oversight in accordance with procedures layed down in the ops manual. The ops manual must comply with EU-OPS. Oh and paying money to the CAA, of course.

The fines can be quite high. First offence they are likely to be in the low four figures. Second offence, getting towards the middle of five figures. Plus costs of course. And the CAA are then watching, and also very reluctant to agree to anyone involved being a post holder later on! That can screw up a good career.
