And if it’s moving people between places, it probably would in some way.

Just flying for compensation without authorization would qualify. No way that's worth the risk.

The admin only portion would be the only realistic option. IMHO your best side hustle would be a non flying income source. My personal favorite is real estate investing, which comes in many flavors ranging from very active to completely passive.

not sure if DL has a different policy, but legally speaking, this is only true if the flying is 121/135/91k. 91 flying does not count towards FAR limits

Respectfully, but stupid is being in the bottom 20% of an airline, having the ability to generate a six figure side income, believing life will be all roses, getting a furlough notice, ending up as a truck driver or fishing charter deck hand and selling the strongest asset you have, your home.

User mileage may very.

And secondly, Part 91 or even 135 is not competing with Delta. The routes arent even remotely similar and Delta doesnt operate into most of the destinations.

The only form of competition is you, as a unit of work. If you are flying Part 91 you arent sitting around waiting for a GS or IA.

But once again, if you are flying outside of Delta, they want to know and have you request it. I know people that got approval for Part 91. But to risk getting fired over it and losing a career? Not smart. But you do you.

If you have the ability to generate a six figure income, couldn’t you just do that if you got furloughed? 🤔

How do you make $10k a month flying on off days?
