Hello all,

My question is... *I would like to fly for hire under part 91.
Specifically, *I would *to fly lawyers to their depos and *get back home at

My Google research indicates that all this added crap went into effect in
1993.

Might someone *out there, like myself, *know if I'm "grandfathered"under

You are not grandfathered for the purpose of "holding out to the public". *

And I cannot recall if the change was due to an actual change in the rules.
I thought the change was due to a different interpretation of existing
rules.

Now, if the lawyer firm owned the aircraft and used it for flying only
"firm" lawyers, and hired you as a pilot for that aircraft, then it would
probably come under Part 91.

or if the lawyer rented the aircraft and hired you to fly it.
