Flying in other countries
Is it as easy to fly in countries like Kazakistan, Afghanistan,
Mongolia, Russia, Pakistan as it is in N America? Do I just fill out the regular forms, get the visas and fly right in? Assume I have a PPL (Canada) and an experimental category plane like the CH 601 or 701. I've seen that in many Soviet states, theres no avgas, just the A1 jet fuel. For that reason I'd aim for the rotax engine in the zenith aircraft and use high octane mogas. But other than the aircraft and visa/passport paperwork, what else is different? I have specifically those countries in mind, Kazakistan, Afghanistan, Mongolia, Russia, Pakistan. Any experiences? |

You need clearances, for airplane and crew and a list of
passengers. See http://www.faa.gov/ats/aat/ifim/ -- James H. Macklin ATP,CFI,A&P -- The people think the Constitution protects their rights; But government sees it as an obstacle to be overcome. some support http://www.usdoj.gov/olc/secondamendment2.htm See http://www.fija.org/ more about your rights and duties.

There are services that coordinate this for you. It would be next to
impossible to do this on your own. I have friends that do it for oil companies but they use a service to coordinate all this. -Robert |
