Whistle in the dark if you ask me. Until it’s rewritten clearer some caa will not be so forthcoming…
I guess there is some discussion going on inside EASA right now – hopefully!
ORS4 No.1271: Use of National Permit to Fly Aircraft for Flight Instruction and Self-Fly Hire
Thanks Maoraigh.
I did a google on it and here it is
Amazing what the CAA pulls out of a hat at the last minute
Pardon, probably my english needs a refresh, but I have a couple of question concerning ORS4 No.1271:
- what “self-fly hire” means?
- what about the second thread title question “Annex 2 hours to no longer count towards EASA licenses” . It seems that ORS4 covers only the training on Annex2, isn’t it?
SFH is renting, usually from a club/school.
It could well be that ORS4 doesn’t deal with the Annex 2 hour admissibility. I don’t get time to read everything That itself is crazy because someone flying say an RV would need to rent a certified plane for the required 12hrs every 2 years!
Had a quick look at the recently published Basic Regulation that will enter into force soon. I am glad to see that is specifically mentions that flight training can be done in other than “EASA type” aircraft. This mean that few CAAs can argue against the use of it in basic flight training.
