[Adopted 6-8-2004 by Res. No. 673-2004 (Ch. 636, Art. X, of the 1985 Code)]
For purposes of this article only, the following terms shall be defined as set forth:
COMMERCIAL OPERATOR
A person who, for compensation or hire, engages in the carriage by aircraft in air commerce of persons or property, other than as an air carrier or foreign air carrier or under the authority of 14 CFR Part 375. Where it is doubtful that an operation is for "compensation or hire," the test applied is whether the carriage by air is merely incidental to the person's other business or is, in itself, a major enterprise for profit.
NONCOMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT
Any privately owned aircraft not for hire which is operated by an owner or lessee, used for purposes of business or pleasure for which use no compensation is sought or received.
[Amended 9-20-2007 by Res. No. 911-2007; 6-24-2008 by Res. No. 513-2008; 6-7-2011 by Res. No. 478-2011; 7-30-2013 by Res. No. 601-2013; 6-1-2016 by Res. No. 447-2016]
