All this really points up is how ridiculous the feds and their rules are. You have an airplane, you have a professional pilot, you have a guy that wants to go somewhere with cash in hand. That should just about cover everything.

I'm spoiled by the days when all you needed was a commercial ticket. I was flying part 135 scheduled operations as a captain (well there were no other pilots in the airplane so I must have been the captain) with just a commercial and 500 hours. We were a VFR only operation. Flew people all over the midwest. Building time without instructing. Ahhh, those were the days. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/buck.gif[/img]
