How much do weekend part 135 pilot jobs pay per year?
What is the difference between Weekend Part 135 Pilot vs Part 91 Pilot?
| Aspect | Weekend Part 135 Pilot | Part 91 Pilot |
|---|---|---|
| Certifications | Commercial Pilot Certificate, specific Part 135 training | Commercial Pilot Certificate, general flying experience |
| Work Environment | Charter flights, on-demand services, often weekends | Private, corporate, or recreational flying, flexible schedule |
| Employer & Industry | Part 135 charter operators, air taxi services | Private aircraft owners, corporate flight departments |
Weekend Part 135 Pilots typically operate charter and air taxi flights under Part 135 regulations, often on weekends or irregular hours. In contrast, Part 91 Pilots generally fly private or corporate aircraft with more flexible schedules. Both roles require similar certifications but differ mainly in work environment and operational scope.
