Hi All,
Is anyone currently operating an N reg aircraft with a properly set-up dry-lease strucuture? Or an alternative?
I'm considering changing to the N reg in order to take advantage of the FAA IR, but in order for my aircraft to work financially, I need to hire it from one of my companies the others when flying on business relating to that company (incidental personal travel, not public transport or aerial work).
I've discovered the potential pitfalls apparently requiring a dry-lease agreement and the lessee becoming the operator of the aircraft for the duration of the flight, and would very much like to talk to someone who is already doing this or knows the issues inside out, as I'm getting quite a bit of conflicting advice.
Alternatively, can anyone recommend a good specialist aviation law firm who won't try to charge me Learjet prices for an SEP, and what really should be almost a copy/paste job?
