Regulation Text

Research Notes
Section 91.1002 — Compliance date — establishes when Subpart K becomes applicable to an operation that meets the fractional definition.
The trigger: Once an operation meets the fractional ownership definition (multiple program owners, program manager providing aircraft management services), Subpart K's operational requirements apply immediately. There is no grace period for an existing flight department that transitions to a fractional model.
Practical scope: Operators considering moving from traditional Part 91 corporate operations to a fractional model must complete Subpart K compliance build-out before operations begin.
Reference: FAA Order 8900.1 Volume 4 Chapter 11.
