Ok....a guy owns his own jet, and owns his own 135 certificate....the plane is on that certificate, they have a POI and its an operating 135 operation......but never ever charters the plane. Literally turns down every charter customer that calls because he simply doesn't REALLY want to charter his plane.........he just flys it 30-50 hours per year for his personal trips.
Question:
He asks me to be his Chief Pilot........is there anything illegal about him actually not chartering the plane out ever.
Or better yet.....can anything come back to me by way of trouble?
I ask because this is a job that just requires my name to be on the paperwork as CP....I'll maybe do a few trips a year for him on my off days. But he's gonna pay me $36,000/yr. So it won't effect my real job in any way.....I was just told I could get in trouble since he will NOT ever charter the plane for real.....that all he wants to do is not lose his 135 certificate for non-use.
Anyone know about this.........????
