Title:
Preventing Illegal Air Charters
Topic:
Learn How to Prevent and Avoid an Illegal Air Charter Flight
Speaker(s):
Charles McConnell FAASTeam Representative and Edward Hadley, Aviation Attorney
Brief Description:
This seminar is for all general aviation pilots who have questions about crossing the line in an illegal air charter situation. We will talk about -
- Part 135 Requirements
- Pilot Qualifications and Training
- Aircraft Certification, Maintenance
- Dry Leases versus Wet Leases
Air charter operations — also known as commuter and on demand operations — require a higher level of FAA pilot training and certification, aircraft maintenance procedures, and operational safety rules. This is far beyond pilots who may take family or friends for an airplane ride. FAA inspectors perform more frequent periodic checks on air charter companies’ pilots, crewmembers, and aircraft than they do on private pilot operations. Air charter crewmembers must undergo regular proficiency checks to maintain their FAA certifications.
