A new regulation whose effective date falls on February 14 will for the first time recognize air charter brokers as indirect air carriers, but with it comes new responsibilities for them and the Part 135 operators whose flights they charter. The Part 295 regulation was the topic of two panel sessions yesterday at the 2019 NBAA Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference.
