So, I cannot find anywhere in the FAR (other than the part about FAA inspectors sitting in the jumpseat) that prohibits a passenger on a 135 flight from sitting in the jumpseat.

Can anyone shed light on this?

I would imagine a Part 91 flight anything goes for the jumpseat, but for some reason I was under the impression (since I was at a 121 carrier for a while and there were specific people who could ride on it) that it is not allowed under 135 except for inspectors/check airman.
