IFR w/pax under Single-Pilot/Single Aircraft 135
Anybody know what the limitations are on flying IFR with passengers in
a single-engine under a single-pilot, single-aircraft part 135 cert? Thanks for any info, I can't glean it from reading part 135. |

The FAA just will not issue a Part 135 certificate for single-engine/single-pilot IFR with passengers. I've even tried to purchase an existing certificate... but the FAA will also not allow the transfer. :-) If anyone else has better/more-current information about HOW to accomplish a Part 135 certificate single-engine/single-pilot IFR and Night with passengers, please contact me, too!!!!

I was thinking that Richard Kaplan did that in his P210, but I haven't seen any posts on usenet from him in quite a while....yes, here it is (or google for "kaplan 135")... http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...7b00ccc1c61305 Cheers, John Clonts Temple, Texas N7NZ |

still the case, hmm. Thanks! |

I thought that you could do it with a turboprop (PC-12)?

Thanks for any info, I can't glean it from reading part 135. Unfortunately, it is not going to happen. The FAA just will not issue a Part 135 certificate for single-engine/single-pilot IFR with passengers. This seems odd. Can the Pilatus (single engine) be flown single pilot? Seems to be a candidate for Part 135 use. I realize 14 CFR 135.4 states explicitly two crewmembers for an on-demand operation but where is the exclusion of single engine? or alternatively, the definition that requires 2+ engines? I can't find it in my copy of the FARs. But then, I'm not suffering from insomnia, so I'm not reading it closely..... (*chortle*) |

I think I read that you can do it with dual electrical/vacuum systems

I didn't read the link, but it appears that your FSDO has a lot to say about it. They have zero downside in saying no, and can screw up their careers if they approve it and something happens. Which way will they go? You better be make GOOD buddies with them, or have some other leverage. |
