Just getting started working on my commercial certificate, and I’ve been scouring RUclips for a simple way to remember the information that you have presented clearly succinctly and simply. Thank you!
This video is perfect! My only addition would be to add the limitations if the commercial pilot does not have an instrument rating. Thank you so much!!
This explanation was fantastic! I really appreciate how simple and easy you described everything. I’ll hopefully have my commercial checkride within the next week! Do you any trick scenarios that I could try to answer?
Woww!!!! Excellent and not at all confusing , thank you sir I’m having my commercial check in 4 days ! A question 1) you went on Facebook and advertise as a CFI to teach and you’re providing the aircraft to the student ? Is it legal?
And a customer comes to you giving the plane which he rents from a flight school ? And also pays you , who holds the operational certificate and operational control
@@rayssmithm5628 there is no operation certificate here and there is no need for one. The customer has operational control. Good luck on your check ride!!!
By far the least confusing video on this topic and the diagram is really great. My question is, if you’re conducting a 119 exemption, are you allowed to provide the pilot and the plane, and be legal? Thanks
Thank you so much for the encouraging comment. Yes you can, that’s how flight schools are able to provide you with the plane and the flight instructor!
The easiest way to understand it in my opinion is… is the operator (persons hiring you) making money on the flight or not? If they are it’s common if they’re not it’s private. That’s the gist of
What if I bought a tailwheel plane? And I want to train people to get their tail wheel rating in my plane. Can I do that? I would assume not because the customer is not renting or owns that plane. But what if I tell the customer that I’m only charging for my time and my time is about 150 an hour?
First of all thanks alot for putting out this video, it was very helpful, but i have one question regarding the last example, can you please explain how does it come undef part 91 and specifically which part of part 91
I have few questions I am sorry for the long comment I hope you can see this and help me understand it a bit more. private carriage doesn't fall under part 91 and it's only for part 125 and 135 companies who doesn't want to obtain air operating certificate since they only going to have only few limited contracts and carry only certain people. Does that mean that those part 125/135 companies under private carriage goes through the same inspections and everything as a regular part 135 who is holding out and has operating certificate? And if no, what separates them from a pilot who buys his plane and provide private carriage to only certain selected contracts (aka wet lease)? And does dry lease always falls under part 91 since the customer is the one who always provides the plane? Last question is there a difference between having operational control of the AIRPLANE and operational control of the flight(aka PIC calling the shots on whether it's a go or a no go flight)? I know I might be mixing some stuff up I hope you can help me understand it a bit more thank you
Yes you are mixing up different information from different sources. Private carriage does happen under part 91 as long as the customers provides the aircraft. If you are watching this video for your commercial training then do not confuse yourself with wet lease, dry lease, certifications standards (you do not need to know all of that). For private carriage under part 91 it’s just a simple question of does the customer provide the aircraft or no.
@@pilotology3610 so does that mean for every time I fly for part 91 I am going to be doing private carriage as long as I am holding out only my pilot services but not me and airplane (excluding ofc me not working under part 125 or 135)? And is there difference between having operational control of a flight and operational control of plane? Thank you again
@@ronaldobale2886 yes common carriage is not allowed under part 91, you will need an operator certificate which puts you under 121 or 135 unless you are operating under 119 exemption jobs. Private carriage can have an operator certificate which will go under 125/135 or they can operate without a one under part 91 with the condition of the customer providing the aircraft. The operational control question is worded a bit tricky because let’s say you are a pilot for delta and flying their 737, delta is the one who has operational control of that airplane as it is their property and they are the one who assigned you to be flying that airplane because they have operational control. If they want to unassign you and bring another pilot they will be able to because they have “operational control”, but in-flight the pilot in command has the final authority
@@pilotology3610 okay thank you I think I understand better now! Just last question am I able to hold out only pilot services as long as I am not advertising me and the plane as a package? like for example I overheard my friends wanting to fly South Carolina can I tell them that I am commercial pilot and willing to fly them as long as they provide the plane? And would I need to draw up some sort of contract between us to be safe every time? Thank you
@@ronaldobale2886 no you are not allowed to do that. Holding out to the public that you are willing to provide transportation for hire makes you common carriage not private carriage, so you will need an operator certificate unless you are 119 exemption
So say I just got my commercial license. Someone I know says they want to buy a plane and pay me to fly them places. But they also say they want to take other people with us and they will also pay the owner of the plane to take them. Would that be illegal?
Where can i reference that its legal that the person is providing both the money and the plane? also where can i reference thats its legal to fly my friend in a plane he rented and get paid for it because i heard someone else saying you cant do that because thats a “dry lease”
Let’s say me and my friend are flying to Philadelphia for a dinner. And another friend popped up and asks to fly him to a city near Philadelphia. Am I able to get paid from him? (I don’t have the operational control)
Todd shellnut has a video on this topic. From what I gathered, you can hold you as a commercial pilot but not as a commercial operator. Video is linked below, let me know what you guys think. ruclips.net/video/anNmqTGxInk/видео.htmlsi=CziWwJtwEqTirlS_
I have came across the video but never actually watched it, I’ll make sure to take a look! Todd is a great pilot, I studied for my CFI license from his FOI library, a great instructor and their FOI videos helped me a lot as a CFI!
Hands down… one of the best (non- confusing) videos I have ever seen regarding to comercial operations. Thank you.
My commercial checkride is tomorrow. This explanation is hands down the best I've seen. Thank you.
Did you pass?
@tylerfoley6644 Yes, sir. It's a pass and this video was very helpful.
I’m a CFI and this is by far the best explanation I have seen on Commercial Limitations!
Just getting started working on my commercial certificate, and I’ve been scouring RUclips for a simple way to remember the information that you have presented clearly succinctly and simply. Thank you!
Cleared a lot of my confusions, thanks for using the examples as well. Great job putting this video out!
100% the most accurate video I’ve seen on this. Way better than FAS explanations.
This video is perfect! My only addition would be to add the limitations if the commercial pilot does not have an instrument rating. Thank you so much!!
And also add that scenario may be asking like flying a plane with complex, or high performance endorsements that you may need, etc
could've saved myself a few hours of heartache if i looked up this video first. great video!
The best explanation of this topic that I've seen yet, thank you!
Great job with explaining such a complicated topic, I’ve always second guessed myself on certain scenarios but now have a good way running through it.
3:45 Common Carriage
4:23 Flow Chart
16:00 Scenarios
19:40 Pro Rata Share
Way to go interpreting and laying out the regs in laymen terms. Great video
Thank you so much ❤
Explained it better than most flying RUclips channels 👍🏾 thank u
Fantastic explanation!
This is very helpful and clear cut, thank you!

@@rayssmithm5628 the cfi question, the answer is yes, you can provide the aircraft it is under 119 exemption

Last scenario sounds so illegal 😂
Nice! very helpful

Let’s say me and my friend are flying to Philadelphia for a dinner. And another friend popped up and asks to fly him to a city near Philadelphia. Am I able to get paid from him? (I don’t have the operational control)
Who is providing the aircraft?
@@pilotology3610 let’s say: 1- my friend is renting it from flight school, or 2- my friend owns the aircraft
Which friend, the one flying for a dinner or the one wants to be dropped off

@@pilotology3610and how is it going to be different if the other friend rented the plane?
To make it easy, take all payments in cash.
guys just a tip...put the video's speed at 1.5 or 1.75. Saves you time and you can watch it several times to really solidify the information.
This guy looks like Alex Pereira 😅
Todd shellnut has a video on this topic. From what I gathered, you can hold you as a commercial pilot but not as a commercial operator. Video is linked below, let me know what you guys think.
