You could look up "Federal Aviation Regulations part 135" to see what you would be getting into.
Thank you for answering my question Twin Wasp. That was what I was looking for. I appreciate everyone's input.
Hear me out, I am just bouncing around ideas to get an idea of whats possible. If I were to own a Saratoga or Lance on my own for pleasure, but I wanted to start a Part 135 Operation using my plane, would one of those be an aircraft suitable to charter? Mainly flying the Keys, Bahamas and South Florida.
