Customary, I'm probably going to get downvoted for this but..
What part of there being a "transaction" makes the flight inherently unsafe? Does a "transaction" imply that the private pilot will be flying more to make money, therefore be less safe? If that's the case shouldn't there just be a limitation on the number of flights private pilots can do?
Are private pilots not supposed to take passengers with them? If that's the case, maybe there can be additional safety/certification requirements imposed for private pilots (without requiring them needing to learn all the ins and outs of commercial 747 flights).
A blanket ban just because there is money involved seems silly.
- jmilloy 11y agoOne additional note above is that having a less-flexible destination (due to the passenger) can cause the flight to be less safe.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoI don't see the blanket ban...dozens of carriers operate in the US daily.
- pj_mukh 11y agoBlanket ban on private pilots having paying passengers.
