I'm coming from a 121 background although I have flown for Part 135 carriers in the past. As a PIC, the
only concern you have under 121 and I would imagine 135 as well, is your company issued, FAA approved OpsSpecs.
Period. Yes, you have to adhere to Part 121/135 rules but your FAA approved OpsSpecs always determine what you can and can't do. If something isn't clearly delineated in your OpsSpecs, ask your D.O., FAA POI or simply follow 121/135.
Just my two cents devalued to $ 0100098 on today's close.
