Hello chaps,
I'm seriously considering taking a flying gig based out of London Luton Airport. I'd be captain on a Canadair CL-604. The job would make commuting home to California a bit of a pain. It's sad to admit, but one of the biggest factors for me is the withdrawls I would suffer from my RV-8.
I could pull the wings off and ship it over there. What are the rules regarding November registered Experiementals flown by US pilots? Can I exercise my FAA repairmans certificate? Can I sell the aircraft over there when I move on from this job? What airports should I look at? I'm assuming Luton would be way too expensive. I would probably need to live outside of London anyway, due to cost of housing. What can hangar space be rented for? My co-captain lives down in Brighton so I'm certain I can commute in from some distance.
Any of you nice chaps want to do a house swap for a couple of years? I live on an airpark in a lovely 3800 sq/ft home with a big hangar in central California.
Or alternatetively, and perhaps better still, does anyone over there need a room mate or RV construction assistant? I'd be willing to help you build during my off time.
