§ 23.21. Categories of aircraft.  


Latest version.
  • Final determination as to the proper category designation of any aircraft shall rest with the Airport Manager. The following category designations are recognized:

    (1)

    Private.

    (a)

    Privately owned aircraft will be operated noncommercially by owner or owners.

    (b)

    Private aircraft may be used by persons other than the owner provided no part of the cost of operation of the aircraft is received in money or otherwise by the owner for such use.

    (c)

    Company and corporation owned aircraft that are operated for the free transportation of their and other personnel and/or products are classified as private aircraft and subject to the restrictions as listed under par. (b) above.

    (d)

    No flying club shall operate at Central Wisconsin Airport unless approval is obtained from the Central Wisconsin Airport Board. Club aircraft shall be owned and operated by a nonprofit partnership or nonprofit Wisconsin corporation and each club member shall be a listed owner of the aircraft or owner of a share in the corporation owning the aircraft. The club may not derive greater revenue from the use of its aircraft than the amount necessary for the operation, maintenance and replacement of its aircraft and will file and keep up to date with the Airport Manager a list of membership. At any time the Airport Manager has reason to believe that a club aircraft is being so operated that it falls under the commercial classification of this section, he shall so notify the club and, if they fail to remedy conditions complained of, the Airport Manager shall reclassify the aircraft and levy fees and leases or permits required for the appropriate type of operation.

    (2)

    Aircraft for sale. New or old aircraft held for sale may be demonstrated to prospective purchasers or, when sold, may be used to instruct the new owner of its operation.

    (3)

    Commercial. Commercial aircraft uses are:

    (a)

    To carry passengers for hire on local flights.

    (b)

    For rental, hire or charter.

    (c)

    Student instruction and its kindred occupations.

    (d)

    Any aircraft used for commercial purposes and not otherwise covered in these regulations.

    (4)

    (a)

    Contract. All federally certificated air carriers holding a contract with the Central Wisconsin Airport Board for airport usage.
