Part 91 operator
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the CFR Title 14 part 91 defines a Part 91 Operator.[1] These are the regulations that define the operation of small non-commercial aircraft within the US, however, many other countries defer to these rules. These rules set conditions, such as weather, under which the aircraft may operate.[2]
