How to find empty Leg Flights

On which routes are there transfer flights and empty-haul flights?

The response will concentrate on the consumer goods industry. If you know that a privatepilot plans to take you flying, you can ask him if he wants to take you with him. Walking around your Facebook page and personally identifying your friends may not be valued, and you may find your email messages unresponsive.

When you know that something is on the drivers roster, such as a Nanchang CJ-6 (an old two-seater on many dreams lists), you can keep your eye open for this kind of occasion. No matter what makes you talk to drivers and in the sky is the secret to idling.

Getting your bearings and establishing yourself as an enthusiastic person will take a long while. Instead, you go where the pilots go, and that can give you extra means of transport to get to your goal - or even run aground for a while. Flights to Heathrow or Gatwick, for example, would be extremely scarce; they are generally directed to a privately owned aerodrome such as Cotswold or even Humberside.

We have about 20-25 aerodromes in Greater London and our home towns, but not every aircraft model is approved for its kind of patrol. But on the other hand, and if you are younger, the "stranded" on a chance pitch offers the possibility to hanging around in the terminals and meeting any pilot who might be going to another place (note: I have never been a "total gypsy" myself, but have talked to those who have succeeded in overcoming hopeful distance in the course of about a year; others have found that the flexibility requirements became uncomfortable with age).

The BlackJet should have Uber's commercial scheme, but now seems to offer very costly pure payment provisions in order not to be closed. The EU has entered with a tougher 965/2014 regulation, which makes some flyers hesitate to do anything at all if they don't know you well.

And the best way to learn more is to join your own air club and browse air travel guides for individual flyers. An easy Google lookup "Aviation Club near London" delivered two pages with results. I can suggest "Pilot Getaways" (mostly US audience), "Pilot Magazine (UK version)" (UK General Interest), "Plane and Pilot" (US, mixing commercial and personal, more technical) for aeronautical magazine.

Corporate Angel Network also accepts input volonteers (without live flights ), but this leads to a vast amount of information about timetables, flyers, fractional owner, commercial vehicle operator, airport and everything else. Sure, the aviator will have his own, but it will help make you a serious enthusiastic using your own things.
