Okay, this isn't just something AirNet came up with on their own. It's something they have worked on closely with the FAA and their approval, as a Part 135 company, to do.
Part 135 Companies answer to their POI (Principal Operator Inspector) and together they will occasionally "make their own" rules. Having said that it doesn't mean they can do what ever they want. There is a chain of command structure. Company answers to the POI, the POI answers to the FAA.
For example. As long as you do what the company teaches and don't deviate from Operation specifications, Operation manual, flight profiles (which all have been approved by the POI) and so on, you are in good shape. Let's say that some "Mr. FAA" guy ramps you and claim what you are doing is wrong and he wants to "get you". As long as you follow Company established procedures you are untouchable (in theory, anyway
). The Company and the POI might get in trouble, but not you!
