FF,
Now we come very close what I see as a hot oven plate where fingers get burned very easy.
I can’t get out from you in simple terms, "Yes it is possible for a PP or RP under the new part 62 to get remunerated"
Follow it up what I wrote, you type like a lawyer you try to avoid questions like a lawyer, maybe you are one, but this is not my point, I don’t blame you.
You wrote in the begin, legislation or regulations are against any part 96 com opps, I bailed out, I don’t want to fight.
Not true, again it is possible to get a part 96 ASL, but how you wrote it, it sounds like it is not possible at all. Not true again,
South Africa is the only country in the world, where it is possible to fly a NTCA under part 96, for gain. I see from the new part 96, that people are not happy with it, they want more that any cowboy, can fly commercially.
In order to fly under the present part 96, you need to be a CPL, and that is what the hole of the new part62 is about.
It is well hidden in the proposal, and someone can hardly see it sticking out, except again lawyers.
Now, maybe the hole of the ML community will fall over me right now, but in my opinion, no comm. Pilot………no comm. flying.
Reasons and questions with my humble opinion with some couple of 100's PPL hours, so I would be a beneficiary as well, but common sence prevails as:
1.) Comm. pilot is a profession
2.) Comm. pilot is proper trained
3.) Why should someone go through the troubles of comm. pilot exams, being outbreaked by a PPL or RPL(even with the ad on for a course and exam)
4.) Why don’t you apply for an ASL with the Dept. of Transport to start Part 96 flipping opps
5.) Is 4.) to difficult to achieve
6.) If it is difficult to achieve, why is that so
7.) Is that a safety issue, right now
8.) If 7) is yes, than there would be an even more serious safety issue in the future
9.) With the deregulation of the present regs, and introduction of part62 ML opps will mushroom and fatalities rise.
10.) Do you personally have with the present part62 introduction a gain in your operation
11.) The Aero club is like a union, but now they are getting involved in the control of com operations
12.) this 11.) is designate for abuse, the buddy of the buddy in the Aero club system will help e.g. you to get your licence easier.
It is simple for me; if you or others want to fly COM on a NTCA, got through the correct channels, get your CPL and fly. What’s the problem, is it to difficult, than get a Com Pilot, pay him to fly for you, if you go through all the troubles to get the appropriate licences, the law (regs) allow it presently, but under certain conditions, even in NTCA’s.
Part 62, does not give the user with makes his ML Pilot licence an advantage, it is rather a disadvantage, it is purely addressed, to get com operations remunerated. This is the whole reason of part 62, and not what you claim, it is better for the guy making his licence.
Next point, the RPL and the PPL.
With the introduction of the COM aspect of remuneration of part 96, me as a stupid PPL have to go through the same testing as the RPL. In my opinion a PPL is superior to a RPL, I know you wont agree, but come to WB, and listen to the radio and you will hear what is going on.
Go to a ML field look at the studentsML and ML pilots flying, and compare it again with e.g. WB.
Done that, you will know what I am writing about here, a PPL is superior to a MLL(RPL).
Even if I cant get you to agree, you have to agree if it come to the CPL pilot.
This is not an insult on you FF (seen you already getting upset previously), it is facts, it is as well not personal, you are unfortunate only the poor guy receiving the massage. But you know what is going on, because you don’t like to mention “for pay or remunerationâ€Â, which would be a straight simple and forward answer.

FF, another thing is the yearly renewal. Why do we have to renew the licence yearly, Why not not leave it the same as now. This will mean that we pay twice for one licencing period of two years. Currently you only renew and pay fees when you do the renewal. Any ideas what these fees will be.(will it not be the same as tollgates, they soften you with the ideas of concessions etc, and when the place is build they systematically increase the tollfees and then there is sh##t you can do about it.)
ANE, think about what I have written above

We have here a club of people, looking for their own interest only, not for your interests.
Does the above make now sence
