That is an aircraft operation for compensation or hire. It does not matter if the pilots are being compensated . The aircraft owner/operator is being compensated. That is a CFR 14 FAR 135 infringment.
Each infringment(operation) can be fined for every recorded flight hour. These fines can be as much as $10,000.00 per flight hour that was compensated.
Call the FAA 24-Hour Safety Hotline at (800) 255-1111 and put your tax dollars to work.
