IMO It comes down to 121 guys following the “rules”. A lot of 135 and I am not saying EMJ here. I’m talking cr@p 135, like to have “gray” rules. People that like to have a more black & white interpretation or like to follow the “rules” have a harder time in 135. Not trying to discourage anyone from flying 135, just don’t say no one warned you. Good luck out there, and fly safe.
