These skills and qualifications are crucial for maintaining safety, regulatory compliance, and efficient operations in commercial flight environments.

What is a Commission Part 135 SIC Pilot?

A Commission Part 135 SIC (Second-in-Command) Pilot is a professional pilot who assists the captain (PIC) in operating aircraft under Part 135 of the Federal Aviation Regulations, which covers commuter and on-demand commercial operations such as charter flights.
