QUIZ ME!
Here’s
a question asked by an AOPA member who contacted our aviation services staff
through the AOPA Pilot Information Center. Test your knowledge.
Question:
I am involved in a charity, and we are holding a raffle for an airplane
ride. Can I legally make a flight like this?
Answer:
The federal aviation regulations do provide for this type of flight in 91.146,
Passenger-carrying flights for the benefit of a charitable, nonprofit, or
community event. The regulation requires an individual to hold at least a
private pilot certificate with a minimum of 500 hours of flight time, and the
flight must be nonstop, beginning and ending at the same airport, and conducted
within a 25-statue-mile radius of that airport. The local flight standards
district office also needs to be notified at least seven days before the event.
The pilot is allowed to participate in a maximum of four such events per year.
Read more about this kind of flying in this month’s Answers
for Pilots. The Air Safety Institute recently created a new online
course that further explains charitable flying.
