General Aviation

I have a question (and also appreciate the work that Dominique and colleagues do).

The list in NCO.GEN.135 includes:

(8) the journey log, or equivalent

and GM1 NCO.GEN.135(a)(8) says "’Journey log or equivalent’ means that the required information may be recorded in documentation
other than a log book, such as the operational flight plan"

but there is no requirement for an operational flight plan in NCO... (!)

SPO.GEN.140 displays the same confusion/conflict.

This is not the case in NCC.GEN.140, which contains the same GM on 'Journey Log' being ~ OFP, but actually goes on to cover OFP in NCC.OP.145 and lists 21 items it may contain.

Are NCO.GEN.135 & SPO.GEN.140 perhaps copies of NCC.GEN.140?

I can't afford to buy one outright and as I work away from Europe for 6 x 1 month trips. With courses and holidays I'm in Europe for 18-20 weeks a year meaning it would stand idle for 32-34 weeks a year. It makes no sense right now to buy one unless I could get a group together. I've tried to get a group together - had no expressions of interest so far.

Thank you Dominique!

Another happy user here.
Pilotaware now gives me many more (2 - 3 times) more targets using MLAT here in the SE of England. It has been particularly helpful in the last few weeks with glider competitions meaning there are more FLARM targets around, which it also warns me of.
(I also keep a good visual scan going)
