How do you feel about the pilots, the pay, the maintenance etc. 

In most cases they are paying passengers nothing more. Their input on the aviation side of the house means nothing. Think about it, when you fly commercial do you have any say in the operation or do you have any say on the treatment of the patient? Everyone needs to stay in their lane and perform the job assigned to them. 

Unless they are employees of the certificate holder they are passengers in the eyes of the FAA. 

They are considered crew members. Hence why then undergo training every year at the direction of the FAA

Bro, you must be a murse or medic. Their is a difference between a "crew member" and "flight crew". 

God youre a loser. I bet you tell everyone you know you're a pilot too!! Hahahahahaha 🤣🤣🤣

on how to work the door handle does not make you a crewmember

Or a mechanic either, even though you own a vehicle and can change your own oil. 

Ask your FAA POI and I'd bet you'll get a different answer. 

They're PITA's and should be locked in the baggage compartment until needed.

Our mechanics do nothing except collect 12 hours overtime for 2 hours of shoeing up and drinking coffee 

As it should be. Just compensation for putting up with you pukes. 

Ask your "crewmember" if the tail is clear left.  They say yes. You turn your tail and hit something.  You will find out who the "crewmembers" are on that aircraft.

They are paying customers.

Douch*bag that everybody hates at base because you walk around thinking you're god. Idiot 

he's right.

blaming a med crewmember for an accident.

with anything. stupid comment

That is an extremely stupid comment from someone that I'm guessing is extremely stupid. and probably goes base to base not understanding why EVERYONE hates him. 

it doesnt make him you

Just not a flight crew member. 

it becomes a Part 135 flight.

That's what we call a clue.

Are too many utility pilots commenting on here trying to let us know how smart they think they are, but are really clueless trailer trash

According to FAR 1.1 "Flightcrew member means a pilot, flight engineer, or flight navigator
assigned to duty in an aircraft during flight time."

Bro, you haven't got a clue as to what your talking about. Go back to the hospital and help change bedpans. Leave the aviation duties to the aviators. 

Dip$h!t they do not perform aviation duties critical to the flight. 

It don't matter what they are !  If their in your aircraft you are responsible for them .  Think and act accordingly.  Sort it out when you get back to base. 

Ask the FAA for their interpretation. When the nurse and or medic are on board it is considered a Part 135 flight with or without the patient. FAA takes a dim view on calling the empty leg a Part 91 flight. In fact the only time you would call Part 91 is a maintenance flight, ferry flight, or a repositioning flight with only the pilot or maybe mech on board. Some people in this thread have a lot to learn. 

Leave medical people to their own forums.
