Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2018-0881.
    Petitioner: Pittsburgh Aviation Animal Rescue Team (PAART).
    Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: 61.113(c).
    Description of Relief Sought: The petitioner received an exemption 
from Sec.  61.113(c) which allowed PAART's volunteer pilots to obtain 
reimbursement from PAART for fuel costs incurred in operating flights 
transporting animals in need of urgent care. As a condition and 
limitation of that exemption, the FAA required that all pilots (both 
pilot-in-command (PIC) and the second pilot (not a second-in-command 
(SIC)) operating under the terms of the exemption must possess a 
minimum of 50 hours in the specific make and mode of the aircraft being 
flown. PAART is seeking an amendment to this condition and limitation, 
as it relates to the second pilot in the Airvan aircraft, to allow the 
second pilot to fly with a qualified PIC or certified flight instructor 
to build the time to meet the 50 hour requirement.
