**Update 6/18/2024: Is the FAA Targeting JSX? Do Part 135 Ops Need Dispatchers? FAA Proposes Part 110 Definitions NPRM
• Is the FAA Targeting J...
*Update 8/29/2023: www.avweb.com/... It seems the FAA is looking at shutting down this regulatory "loophole."*
Is JSX an airline? I decided to delve into this question after looking at their website and seeing what seems to be a scheduled service with very "nice" airplanes (Embraer 135s and 145s) with only 30 seats each. How is this not a Part 121 air carrier? I found out through a little digging around! This video will help you understand the differences between Part 121 and Part 135 operators focusing at a high level at regulatory differences. Please note: this is NOT intended to be an attack on JSX or their model of operation. It is merely a springboard for discussion on the differences between the two sets of regulations and their implications.

This is a great explanation of 135 vs 121 operations. I teach 4th year aviation students and will use it in my next class.

@LauraLaster747 7 месяцев назад

That is excellent! I am glad the video will be helpful to you. I made it as I was teaching 3rd and 4th year aviation students myself last year and tried to figure out what "loophole" JSX was using for their operation to be legal.

@@LauraLaster747 Laura, there was no need to post a disclaimer about “attacking” JSX. The motivation of JSX to carve out a niche in small markets by shrewd maneuvering around the regs applicable to Part 121 is in itself an indictment of the company. There’s one element of the JSX story you might have mentioned with more time: the carrier’s reliance on Embraer 135s and 145s. The latter is believed by some to be idiot-proof. Other pilots are not as smitten. The bottom line is that according to a pilot familiar with the 145, “they are broken beat up tired RJs”(regional jets). The VNAV function (used for descent profiles) is hardly state of the art (as is the case generally with the avionics; the weight/performance ratio is compromised in summer, and something is always broken, which may account for those pesky last minute delays, diversions and cancelled flights. Yeah, their PR is slick and their attorneys even have better moves: its parent company, VistaJet Global hemorrhaged money in 2022 and 2023. Maybe that’s the result of about 30% of passengers checking in on TripAdvisor describing their JSX experience as “terrible”. That magnitude of dissatisfaction isn’t sustainable.

This is an outstanding research into what is a confusing quagmire of regulations and exceptions. The only reason a company would be motivated to wade through this kind of trouble is because of profit incentives that avoid compliance with more stringent regulations. Laura's investigation clarifies how an entity can accomplish that in aviation, or virtually any heavily regulated industry. This is a great resource for any aviation, business, law, or government class. This will be a great reference. Thank you, Laura! Mark

Thank you for your kind words, Mark!

Nice I'm a mechanic that does part 121, 135 & 91 work it's interesting to see how everyone is doing business. It's a tough industry

@LauraLaster747 Год назад

Very glad it is helping you learn the differences! Keep up the good work!

You are looking at 135 minimum requirements BUT not JSX requirements. I have worked for 3 121 carriers and JSX has the very same training and operate the aircraft the same way as those 121 carriers. JSX is far stricter in the company policies and operational policies than those 121’s I flew for.

@LauraLaster747 10 месяцев назад

Hello - thanks for watching! The main purpose of the video was to unpack the regulatory differences. I am glad to hear JSX is operating more strictly or the same strictness as 121 operators, but the point is that they don't HAVE to do that since they are operating under 135 currently.

@harrisontravels992 Год назад

You should make a part 2

@LauraLaster747 Год назад

What should I cover in part 2? (I would love to research the company more!)

@topofthegreen 8 месяцев назад

It sounds like part 135 is more dangerous to fly on.

@LauraLaster747 8 месяцев назад

I would say that 135 has different rules - that tend to be less strict.

@cl65captain Месяц назад

Five years ago, I would have agreed. However, since the 121 carriers went DEI crazy I think 121 is more risky. The stories I keep hearing from my 121 legacy captain friends make me worry that we are watching an industry that is a slow motion train wreck. The recent SWA incidents all had one commonality…. A DEI hire in the right seat.
