“Colour-blindness stops a pilot from obtaining a night rating straight away, because being able to differentiate between green and red lights is key to flying in the dark,” an aviation source told BBC Wales.

Speculation about the legality of the flight has so far centred around the question of whether it complied with restrictions concerning private pilots flying passengers in Europe in a US-registered aircraft.

到目前为止，有关该航班合法性的猜测主要集中在是否遵守了美国注册飞机在欧洲飞行乘客的私人飞行员的限制。

As a private pilot, 59-year-old Mr Ibbotson was not allowed to carry passengers for remuneration or financial reward.

作为一名私人飞行员，59岁的Ibbotson先生不允许携带乘客获得报酬或经济奖励。

A preliminary report from the AIIB, released in February, stated he could only fly passengers on a cost-share basis.

由于这架飞机是US-reg驾驶员，飞行员和乘客必须具有“共同目的”才能完成旅程，飞行员必须决定航班何时离开。

The report adds that the flight “must not be made for the purpose of merely transporting the passenger”.

In their preliminary report, the AAIB said that because Mr Ibbotson's pilot licence and log book had been lost in the crash, it had not yet been able to establish what ratings he held or how many hours he had flown recently - although it was known he had completed approximately 3,700 flying hours.

AAIB在他们的初步报告中说，因为Ibbotson先生的驾驶执照和日志在坠机事故中丢失了，所以还没有确定他持有的评级或者他有多少小时最近飞行 - 虽然众所周知他已经完成了大约3,700个飞行小时。

Investigators would normally look to establish how many hours a pilot had flown in the last 28 and 90 days before a crash.
