shouldn't. military aircraft are public use A/C, and not subject to several civilian rules, Federal Avn. Regs (FAR). DOD or Branch (Army/AF/Navy/Joint) regs generally cover what are exempted FARs.Jenny Lynn wrote: It would be interesting to know if any of the ARNG boardings are included in the 10,629 total of commercial passenger boardings that occurred at the airport in calendar year 2006 per FAA records?
so, military enplanements don't count as commercial operations. and an Apache unit won't have enplanements anyway, aircrew only in the aircraft, no passenger space.
but, airfield activity, launches and recoveries would count in a different category.
