Quick update
Hi All,
Just a quick update. I got a phone call from the Dutch Civil Aviation Authorities who confirmed that they have the same train of thought as their French colleagues...i.e. they don't mind who rents and for how much as long as the plane is not used for "revenue generating" flights....which is fine by me.
The Dutch guys also said that as long as the plane is maintained to it's standard levels (i.e. usual 50 & 100 hour checks, annual and CofA) then they do not see the need to change anything. So if the plane is airworthy, properly maintained, insured and used for private flying purposes only, then it's OK with them.
Last group to check are the Dutch Tax authorities, which is most likely where the road-blocks will be.
Will keep you all posted.
