French TV coverage of the arrival:
Was this construed as a cost sharing flight??
Interesting side note is that it seems they managed to get immigration organized for their arrival from the UK…
Good thing you didn’t talk about cost to FR3, you would have been treated like a capitalist bourgeois making useless CO2 for a indian meal.
The French here will understand
Funnily enough not a single journalist asked me about the “carbon footprint” or other such things.
Yes, it was operated as a cost sharing flight.
Interesting side note is that it seems they managed to get immigration organized for their arrival from the UK…
That would have been great, but alas no the Gendarmes were there mainly out of curiosity about the event, and to check the basis on which we were doing the flight.
Divided by 80 meals, it might be overall cheaper than the typical burger run 25NM away with a single pilot in a PA28.
