All the charters and managed and flight departments should follow the same set of rules.
In my view, it should apply to any operation that holds out to the public, to include Parts 91K and 135. If Joe Moneybags wants his private, Part 91 Gulfstream crewed by an older sort, that's his business. But if I paid to be in back of a charter or fractional jet and had no say in who's up front, that operator owes me a higher level of care.
The sooner, the better.
