  25. Scenario • Co-Pilot Bob was sneaking small bottles of liquor from the flight attendant’s cart to help him through the grueling 16 hour flight home from Rome. He tried to hide it as best he could from the captain and the plane landed without any major issues.

  26. 91.17 • We all have heard the rules for drinking • 8 hours bottle to throttle • No operating while under the influence • No greater than .04 BAC • Did you know that if the FAA has reason to believe that you violated any of those they can request a test from you for up to 4 HOURS after acting as a crewmember?

  27. Scenario • Pilot Bob had to a get a new job and is working for some shady start up airline. Prior to an IFR flight, pilot Bob refused to let an old man on the airplane because he had a pacemaker in his heart. He claimed the electronics would mess with the instrumentation. There’s a reg about that!

  28. 91.21 • Portable Electronic devices are prohibited on Air Carriers and IFR flights • Exceptions: • Portable voice recorders • Hearing Aids • Heart Pacemakers • Electric Shavers (For all those time you need it) • Anything the pilot/operator allows

  30. 91.107 • Passengers must wear seatbelts on taxi, takeoff, and landing • Exceptions: • Held by an adult if he/she has not reached 2nd birthday • Skydiving

  35. Scenario • A major freight train crash happened 10 miles from the airport. Seeing news crews come to the airport, pilot Bob offers his services. He loads them in his plane and takes off immediately. Bob flies straight for the site of the crash giving the camera man a great close up aerial view.

  40. Scenario • Pilot Bob’s Altimeter stopped working in his skydiving plane. Luckily he has a wrist watch that give him his altitude! So he pulled out the altimeter, labeled it inoperative, and made an entry in the log book. Now he’s good to go!

  41. 91.213 • You cannot operate with inoperative equipment. • Exceptions: • Minimum Equipment List • No MEL: • Not on VFR Day • Not required per 91.205 • Not required on aircrafts equipment list

  42. Minimum Equipment List • An MEL does NOT mean a list of the minimum items that need to be working • If an item is not working, the MEL will tell you what action needs to be taken and what limitations that could mean. • Keeps larger aircraft from excessive down time

  43. Scenario • Pilot Bob’s sight seeing plane has been neglected for about a year now since his skydiving business has been doing so well. Suddenly Bob has a sightseeing customer so he fires it up and takes them for a ride.

On his first flight, the passengers and their gear, however, were slightly above gross weight. Bob turned a blind eye thinking it would be fine.

  46. 91.323 • In reality you cannot operate a plane over gross weight • However Alaska is special and so there are provisions • Need to be 135 • No more than 115% max gross weight • No more than 12,500 lbs. • But you do need to get it approved…
