1-3 Chapter text The fourth paragraph in the section titled “Applicable Regulations” is revised to read:
Part 121 operators are subdivided into five categories: commuter, on-demand, domestic, flag, and
supplemental. Commuter operation means any scheduled operation that makes at least five round
trips per week on at least one route between two or more points according to the published flight
schedules and that is conducted with a rotorcraft or with an airplane or powered-lift aircraft that
is not turbojet-powered, has 9 seats or fewer excluding crewmember seats, and has a maximum
payload capacity of 7,500 pounds or less. On-demand operation means any operation for compen-
sation or hire that carries passengers with a negotiated schedule or that uses a turbojet-powered
airplane or powered-lift aircraft with 30 or fewer seats. Carriers authorized to conduct scheduled
operations within the 48 contiguous states are domestic air carriers. Flag air carriers conduct
scheduled operations inside and outside the 48 contiguous states. A supplemental carrier con-
ducts its operations anywhere that its operations specifications permit but only on a nonscheduled
basis. There is a sixth category, commercial operators of large aircraft, but they must comply with
the rules covering supplemental carriers and the distinction is unimportant to this discussion.
A person who has lost an Airman’s Certificate or a Medical Certificate, or both, may obtain a document
from the FAA confirming that it was issued. The document may be carried as temporary certificate(s) for
a period not to exceed 60 days.
