birth or death in the aircraft, or of the death outside Jersey of a traveller
in the aircraft who is killed on the journey in consequence of an accident –

exceeding 14 days to any other person by the owner of the aircraft, and no
pilot in command or other pilot, navigator, or operative member of the crew of
the aircraft is in the employment of the owner, the provisions of this
Regulation shall have effect as though for references to the owner there were
