It's hard to resist the temptation to gather a little data on operations. While we had pilots provide salary information, we slipped in some questions on their operations as well. Three-quarters of the pilots who responded say they fly for FAR Part 91 operations, with 20 percent flying for a combined Part 91/135 operation and just five percent operating solely under Part 135. Still, many Part 91 operators seem to be adopting at least some of the requirements of Part 135.
