I don't think the D model is single pilot certified? Also, it's been a long time since I flew part 135, but wouldn't that operation require two pilots anyway?

Single pilot for ferry flights - not revenue pax

I don't know of any other distinction. As I understand it they have a 135 operating certificate that allows scheduled flying so you'd need a Part 135 ATP to serve as a PIC. It's still an ATP, just not 121.

There is no such thing as a part 135 or 121 ATP. It's just an ATP that you exercise the privileges of in 135 or 121 operations.

I stand corrected. The 135 far I noted was to act as pic without an atp. My mind was wondering back to the Glime atp book that had the 121 or 135 test questions.

Good Lord... a polite and informative conversation on a FI thread? MOAR! MOAR DAMN YOU!

Ah yes, I has forgotten about that. I opted for the 727 floor limit questions.

707 #2 and #3 Turbocompressor ON or OFF?

 

[moonship]

Does the 767 take 2:22, 2:24, or 2:26 to get from Dallas to LA?

 

[Nevets]

Answer is C

Shepard aviation condensed course please.

 

[340drvr]

Shepard aviation condensed course please.

Just remember, a 727 has 3 engines, so all questions with 727 in the sentence will be the third answer, C. This will net an 82% correct rate on those questions , 5% more than needed to pass.

Attention Future Airline Crew-members:

Great Lakes Airlines is pleased to announce on March 18, 2014, the FAA approved our FAR 135
Operation Specifications addition to our current FAR 121 Certificate.

To clarify, Great Lakes Airlines does not have a separate 135 Certificate but an allowance through our Operations Specifications to conduct scheduled airline operations under our current 121 Certificate allowances using the Beech 1900D fleet.

This new undertaking allows us to hire First Officers meeting FAR 135 qualifications. They will gain the
flight time and experience required for the Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) or Restricted-ATP (R-ATP)
certification requirements.
Once they meet these requirements they will then have the ability to start building the required time to upgrade to a 121 Captain.
