Correct Incorrect Correct answer

You are a commercial pilot (single and instrument-rated) currently working on your multi-engine rating. You find yourself in a Starbucks across the airport waiting on your coffee. You just finished your flight lesson, and you are wearing your pilot uniform. A gentleman approaches you and begins a conversation. He offers you to fly his single-engine airplane, carrying his kids and wife, from KTMB to KORL on a family trip. Can you get legally paid for the flight?

No. By wearing the uniform, you are holding out your willingness to carry passengers and property for compensation or hire. Therefore, you are acting as a common carrier and need an operating certificate to get compensated for the flight.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Yes. You are not the operator of the airplane; you are only getting paid for your 'pilot services". In this case, the operator is the owner of the aircraft, and he is not carrying passengers or property for compensation or hire. Therefore, compensation as a commercial pilot in this scenario is perfectly legal.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

You just obtained your commercial pilot certificate, and a friend is asking you to take him and his family on a trip to KEYW. You will be renting the airplane from your flight school. He will cover the entire flight expenses, but he will not be paying you directly. Can you legally conduct the flight?

Yes, since you are not being economically compensated for the flight.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

No, the FAA considers flight time as a form of compensation. Therefore, you are acting as a commercial operator, and to conduct the flight, you would need an operating certificate.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Yes, you can legally get compensated for offering "pilot services." No operating certificate is required for the flight.
