Hi all,
Did a quick search but nothing immediately flagged up, so I was wondering if the forum hive mind knew anything...
I'm in a group running an N reg Archer in the UK. Over the past few days a couple of the members have been asked if they have a 'restricted radiotelephony / radiotelephone permit' in order to use the radio in the UK (I don't know who's been doing the asking... just that it's become a hot topic over the group texts!).
Is this needed?
I was under the impression that you could fly a UK based N-reg in the UK on your EASA licence, but if you wanted to take it out of the UK you'd need to get an FAA licence (either full or piggyback). I hadn't heard anything about needing an FAA/FCC permit to be able to use the radio.
We all have FRTOLs on our licenses...
Can someone more intelligent / knowledgeable than me advise if this is needed (and preferably point me to the appropriate regulations that I can send to the rest of the group) as I'm drawing a blank with Google.
Cheers all
Nick
