taking pictures from the sky

: Robert M. Gary writes: Passengers and cargo have little to do with it. You're probably confusing commercial with 135. I'm making a distinction between flying for hire and flying for one's own business purposes. Just as a private pilot can fly between his offices in different cities for business purposes, he can fly for the purpose of taking pictures. If he transports someone _else_ who acts as photographer, though, the situation may change. You're wrong and you're an idiot. Bertie |

taking pictures from the sky
Just as a private pilot can fly between his
offices in different cities for business purposes, he can fly for the purpose of taking pictures. Negative, IMHO. In the first example, the flying is INCIDENTAL to the business. (this is a key point) He is using the plane as a car in the sky to get from office to office. In the second (assuming you mean he was engaged by someone to take aerial photographs for a fee) the flying is NOT INCIDENTAL to the business. It is INTEGRAL. He is now using the airplane as a camera platform, an essential component of the business. Commercial. Lee Ross N466SR CP SEL IA www.Rosspilot.com |
