3 Is the IRS Really Imposing FET on Managed Part 91 Aircraft?! Dave Weil, CEO, Flight Dept Solutions, LLC Washington, DC October 30, 2012

4 Introduction Very basic overview of the issue Not a lawyer but have a lot of experience in this area FET = 7.5% federal excise tax imposed on taxable transportation IRS Rule: if charge for transportation, then flights represent taxable transportation and subject to FET E.G. Part 135 charter operator charges clients to fly charter flights, thus flights subject to FET Important point: IRS does NOT follow the FAA rules in regard to what is taxable transportation 4

5 What Changed? Historically part 91 flights flown for the owner were not subject to FET Then IRS Chief Counsel memo issued in March 2012 Memo represents IRS opinion, NOT law Memo conclusion: most costs & fees paid to management company by client represent payment for transportation and thus are subject to 7.5% FET! Most aviation tax experts believe the memo s conclusions are wrong but IRS treating it like it s law 5

6 IRS Reasoning What IRS looks for Most critical factor: if management company employs the pilots, then it exercises control and the Part 91 flights are FET taxable Other key factors IRS looks for: Who provides the aircraft insurance Who pays the aircraft bills Who controls the flight scheduling Who arranges the maintenance 6

7 What should you do? Aviation attorneys divided on what to do Best way to avoid the tax is for Owner or entity besides the management company to employ the pilots. This is the most important factor the IRS considers. Other less important factors: Owner should get their own insurance Owner should enter into maintenance contracts and pay maintenance facility itself Owner should control actual scheduling of the aircraft Owner should pay aircraft expenses directly Note: This should not be relied upon as legal advice. Please consult your aviation attorney. 7

11 History Credit for Previous Training was used nationwide Credit was given for pilot that were current and qualified in the make/model of aircraft Some operators were even giving credit for company specific subjects Regulations and guidance never allowed for this practice 11

12 FAA Action Some FAA inspectors started interpreting the regulations as written, or worse FAA-DC stated the practice was not allowed after being asked for an interpretation NBAA members met with FAA to discuss FAA issued Notice N to clear up policy and implementation 12

13 N Expect your POI to review this with you within the next 90 days Any credit for previous training will have to be removed from your training program You may allow for reduced training in your training program based on the qualifications of a new pilot Must have a means to evaluate this previous experience PRIA Previous training documents Logbook Other items showing qualifications 13

14 N cont. Training program must clearly specify what qualifies a pilot for a reduced training curriculum, and it must be documented in the pilot s training record Company specific items must be trained and checked. No reductions allowed All checks must be accomplished. No prior checks may be accepted from another operator Recurrent training may not be reduced 14

15 Summary This is not a regulatory change! What is the FAA trying to accomplish? Standardize POI interpretations of previous training Regulatory compliance Getting 135 operators involved in their own training!!!! 15
