No, don't trust the insurance company to interpret FARs. Their insurance
requirements and interpretation are different than those of the FAA, but obviously you will want to ensure compliance of both. For example, I considered renting my plane to a friend to take flying lessons - this is a non-issue as far as the FAA is concerned, but was considered a "commercial" operation by the insurer and required a changes to the policy. "Flighthawk" wrote in message ... You are going to run into some gray legal areas here. In the past some flights like this have been construed by the FAA as part 135 flights, especially if your non-flying friend decides to take another passenger along on the flight who thinks its a charter. The best thing to do is check with your insurance company to make sure. They will make sure everything fits right. Let us know what they say. PD "Stuart King" wrote in message . com... I own my airplane. A friend needs to go somewhere, but is not a pilot. He can legally use my aircraft without me in it if : 1. He hires an appropriately rated commercial pilot...and 2. Pays all "direct" operating costs for the flight (gas, oil, landing fees)...and 3. He does not pay me anything. Yes/No/Other ? Stuart |
