Questions on Private VS Common carriage
Asked by: connor 4310 views Commercial Pilot, FAA Regulations, General Aviation, Private Pilot
Having gone through NBAA ppts and legal interpretation on FAA website, it is becoming clear that how FAA defines those two terms on FARs.
Yet, I have a scenario question that I am not sure and I would like to get your advice and comments on this.
Let us say, One of my friend owns the plane and he wants me to fly to different state for his vacation. He plans on coming back in a week. I, hold commercial pilot license with current medical certificate.
So, to my understanding, it will not be illegal unless I do not get compensated for hire for this trip. Conversely it would be illegal to get paid by my friend because the flight is conducted point to point and he was holding out to fly him from point A -> B ?
Will there be any other reason that would make this trip illegal/legal ?
Lastly, I would like to know if you have any credible sources other than I looked up that would help study more in depth about these privileges..
Thanks, and have a wonderful day!
