Flyingfemme Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 A pilot can be current on many types at any time. Whether the management have arranged working practices to accommodate this is another matter entirely. Currency/recency simply require that you keep your rating valid with checkrides (probably every 6 or 12 months) and actually fly the thing often enough to be legal to carry passengers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nom de plume Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) Can anyone confirm when our glorious leader will be bothering his arse to address the nation again? I mean, it’s only been a month. Edited August 28, 2020 by Nom de plume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Rushen Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 HQ has some plans. Big glass sheds all over the island for tomatoes. French for all school children, the Ben will do a round trip Douglas -Heysham- Guernsey. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Rushen Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 This is a Review of Air Services in Guernsey pre-covid which has a lot of parallels with IOM. https://www.gov.gg/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=121818&p=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoTailT Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 But as per that very document @Major Rushen herein lies the problem. Aurigny carries a cost base some 22% higher than easyJet. The data is somewhat skewed because of self-handling in Guernsey as a starter. Across the board they are higher than Flybe were, Stobart is and easyJet ever will be. The report fails to include anyone else e.g. Loganair which is an important benchmark too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but Guernsey are saying their next phase will be implemented in October, when the tourist season is completely over. We will probably do similar. Jersey had more to lose from tourism and had to take a shit or bust (literally) approach. So far they have been very luck. I hope it stays that way.

He's the guernsey summary for information, interesting it will be self swabs at ports and release from quarantine as soon as negative with further test after 7 days. God knows when we will even get to same phase Guernsey have been in since 17/08! https://guernseypress.com/news/2020/08/28/no-firm-timescale-on-moving-to-phase-5c/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the Guernsey press release says their introduction of 5C could be months away. They won't even receive the equipment for another month. It then has to be installed, set up and tested. Looks like the mooted October won't even happen . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
