Yes, an exemption is required in the USA to work commercially. I submitted and received my 333 exemption on my own at no cost, so that should not be a barrier.
I did have to go back and renew/refresh my credentials by attending ground school and taking the FAA knowledge exam. Also new medical exam and flight check. All was fine exept for the absurdity of having to renew my flight time in a Cessna and take a check ride again since I have no wish to fly aircraft but need that PP certificate to comply with my exemption. That part costs money$$$
I do agree with Jim on his advise and encourage anyone wishing to pursue commercial work to abide by the governing rules and best practices. Compliance is not always easy, but when measured with safety in mind, is usually the best foundation of a good business plan. Bottom line; work through all elements of the business plan and you will see some obvious answers to your questions rise to the top, especially when you write all of the SOPS and other manuals required. My rate was adjusted accordingly. |
