Public Transport CofA's....the economics?
Wondering what the economics are of operating a GA type with Public Transport Cof A are...?
I'm thinking in particular of a vintage say, which could be rented out for pleasure flights etc, or even - presumably - flown by a co-owner if they had a CPL?
Would it be a potentially cost-reducing measure only, or could it be break-even, or even, dare I say, mildly profitable?
Are there any further administrative hurdles I'm missing here??
What's got me thinking is that I've seen several such aircraft advertised recently & couldn't help but think it would be an advantage to the owners...

Public Transport C of A ceased 3 years ago. All Cs of A are now EASA and what the aircraft may do is based upon the maintenance received.
To conduct pleasure flights you need an AOC and all that goes with it.
