Please excuse my ignorance however, is it legit to make seats available to the public either as a private operation or charter operation with a 'fare' per seat as i consider this a very public forum. My understanding was that this was a privelage of an RPT AOC. It gets all scary when the greyish line between RPT and Charter gets crossed and leaves crew, operators and pax alike with a hot potato should anything untoward happen. CharPT as yet has not been included into categories of operations appended to AOC's to my knowledge.
Please correct me if I have misinterpreted this issue or if I am flat out wrong.
