Is it 135 or 91
This is a the scenario you are based in KCLT, company quotes a trip from KCLT to KAVL to pick up widgets and fly them to KATL drop them off then repo back to KCLT. The last leg is an empty repo back to base but the quote includes the repo cost and is listed on your flight itinerary from your company.
So is the last leg 91 or 135 since there is compensation and is included in quote and itinerary but you are have no widgets.
Would the flight time on empty legs even if they are 91 would they count towards the total limits per monthly, quarter, yearly because it is commercial flying ie you are being paid to do the repo?
Thanks for your input, been browsing some FAA legal opinions for some info as well.
