Not like we fly enough to make a difference. If you want just watch 24 in7 and 34 or 30 in 7

 

If memory serves, instructing is not considered a commercial operation as a second class medical is not needed for it.

 

It's not listed in part FAR part 119 regarding ops that require a commercial; however, you need to have a commercial cert to aquire a cfi certificate, right? Also it says right on the back of the cfi license it's not valid unless you have your commercial cert on you as well

 

Ode to the cutover:

 

Correct you only need a cfi and commercial to instruct, not a operator certificate. So does that logic carry over to it not counting towards 121 flight time limits?

 

Logging a flight (record) in my logbook as a CFI is not compensation, it's a record. As an Instructor not only I follow the reg quoted below, but I maintain a record of every student I fly with. I can log the flight time and I do, even on a regular lesson because I am still endorsing their logbooks for that specific flights and I keep it in my records. Have the FAA try to prove in court that logging flight hours is a form of compensations specially for those of us whom have an ATP.

If an attorney donates his or her time for people of low income in court must that attorney summit to the IRS that they gained extra experience in the courtroom as a form of compensation? We have become a nation that fears the law (FAA) as people push their agenda, our nation wasn't built like this. Know your stuff, it's only going to get worse as the lamest generation enter their late 20's and 30's and before you say it I am part of the lamest generation.

(In a good way)
