Wrong. It's been going on since Pontius was a Pilot. It happens when a separate entity who should have its own AOC (and for whatever reason can't or won't get one) uses the facilities of another company, who must base & line check the former's pilot's to its standards. It should also do the billing to the customer, but it often doesn't happen. It's a very crude form of franchising.

For AOC purposes, I suppose everything is done "by the AOC Holder", but not necessarily otherwise.

So called "umbrellas"

A discussion for another thread perhaps, but armed with knowledge of the regs & legal advice.

Mr. Stammers (see posts 14/15 ) A word or two of advice from an old, retired bloke.

IF you want to be treated like a Professional, ACT like one!

COMMUNICATE with your customers/creditors. every business fears the "uncontactable"....the one who keeps in touch, even if it's not good news, gets the respect!- the "run away and hide" mentality should be left in the juvenile playground.

Proof read your "professional" communications before hitting "send"

then you won't send such howlers as "guilt-edged" ((the expression is "GILT-edged", something VERY different!)

ALLEDGED.....try "alleged"

MALLISHUS....try "malicious"

Spitting your dummy out is not going to do you any favours here.

Another piece of advice that stood me in good stead..."Never knock the opposition, you don't know when you may be wanting/needing to work for them"


@ Lyn Munro....Don't hold your breath!
