French term

vol de mise en place

French to English Law/Patents Transport / Transportation / Shipping wet lease / aircraft charter agreement
La société assurera l'organisation des mises en place du personnel navigant.
La société fera tout son possible pour limiter le cout de l'affretement et des vols a vide de mise en place.

Multiple references to this, and I know exactly what it means in English: it is basically the flight that brings the chartered aircraft and/or flight crew to the place it is needed, the departure airport, where the charter aircraft is located elsewhere. However I cannot come up with a UK English equivalent I am happy with.

Apologies for the lack of accents - I have yet to fathom out how to produce them on this webpage without a Word document to directly copy from :)
