Learning to fly on a permit aircraft
We are trying ascertain the UK CAA rules around learning to fly on a permit aircraft.
A friend has just brought a permit aircraft for his own personnel use.
He wants to get a PPL and train for this on his permit aircraft.
So what are the rules
The CAA website seems to be out of date and or not much detail...
He and the club have both spoken to the CAA and seems to get differing answers...
Has he got to do this via a DOT / ATO
What about instructor
What about the aircraft can it be used.
Insurance ???
What does the DTO need to do if allowed..

Seems to be a different scenarios to which the AMC is refereeing to
Scenario 1 if a DTO buys a permit aircraft and use that to train pilots towards a PPL
Scenario 2 is were a PPL student pilot has brought his own permit aircraft and then come to the club to learn to fly in it. Just for himself.
