Pay-to-fly or pay-to-work programs, sometimes referred to as "pay-to-fly" or "p2f", also known as 'self-sponsored line training',〔(【引用サイトリンク】author1=Community Manager for Pilotman.net )〕 are an aviation industry practice whereby a professional pilot operates an aircraft on revenue-earning commercial operation by paying for it. Prices range from around 14,000 euros to sometimes over 85,000 euros for a 'flight hour package' of generally 500 hours 〔 on an airliner,〔〔 no salaries involved.〔〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cockpitseeker.com/wp-content/uploads/goodies/p2f/devis-mars-2012-nouvelair.pdf )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cockpitseeker.com/wp-content/uploads/goodies/p2f/devis-fev-2012-nouvelair.pdf )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cockpitseeker.com/wp-content/uploads/goodies/p2f/devis-mars-2012-tunisair.pdf )〕 When remuneration is offered, substantial loans to third parties (brokers), are enforced, that outweigh (pilots') financial gain. Typical 'customers' include, but are not limited to, 'low timers' (inexperienced pilots) and low-hour type rated pilots 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cockpitseeker.com/wp-content/uploads/goodies/p2f/Convair_580_Program%20_package.pdf )〕 (e.g. B737 type rated -or qualified-, A320 type rated etc...) that pay to work to build hours and improve their odds at finding an employment as airline pilots, thus challenging the 'pilot shortage' mainstream consensus. The practice extends to airline-dedicated pilot training, in the form of type ratings available for a check,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cockpitseeker.com/wp-content/uploads/goodies/p2f/100714_baltic_aviation_academy.pdf )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cockpitseeker.com/wp-content/uploads/goodies/p2f/farnair-program-2012-overview-and-price-list-atr-42_72-type-rating_lep.pdf )〕 no employment guarantee at stakes, where pilots further shift from investment-worth company assets to source of revenue. == FAA == The Colgan Air Flight 3407 crash led to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) passing new pilot qualification standards.〔 These standards also addressed a mandate passed by the U.S. Congress when they enacted H.R. 5900 (111th), the Airline Safety and FAA Extension Act of 2010.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Airline Safety and FAA Extension Act of 2010 publisher=U.S. Government )〕 This act also foresaw the modification of "requirements for the issuance of an airline transport pilot certificate" in ways that were implemented by FAA's regulation & policy n°8900.225 titled Pilot Certification and Qualification Requirements for Air Carrier Operations on July 10, 2013 Aforementioned regulation reduced the scope of 'pay-to-fly' among FAA licensees by raising minimum standards.〔 Indeed, to serve as SIC (Second In Command or First Officer) : "A pilot may be eligible if he or she was a military-trained pilot; a graduate of a four-year bachelor degree program with an aviation major; a graduate of a two-year associate degree program with an aviation major; or has 1,500 hours total time as a pilot". No regulations explicitly ban 'pay-to-fly'. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pay to fly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
