I knew this would be controversial and it was deliberately so. When an aircraft is being hired out to a different company every day does the PIC replicate those functions that would normally be provided by a corporate flight department? If the PIC is the only one undertaking those functions for multiple companies, is he not operating an air carrier without an AOC?
