I never said they didn't. just that at present time they're not required to fly as a certificated air carrier. (And for them and other smaller museums this is a good thing)

Just another way for the FAA to try to shove it up the bellybutton of the GA community.

Yes it is a good thing.  If that ever comes about it'll be the end of rides in warbirds.

Its funny, after i got off that this will actually affect me and Air Heritage possibly.

Theres a possibility that we were going to offer flights in our T-28 next year after it gets flying again. Its supposed to get painted and run for the first time this summer. How we are going to do it now, im not sure. There arent even detailed plans now for it, so hopefully we will be able to work around it somehow.
