During the contract term, the Pilot will perform his duties, at the discretion of Professional Aviation Services, Inc., and its customer, in accordance with the applicable FAR's, ICAO regulations when operating outside of US airspace, or the Civil Aviation regulations of the country within which the aircraft is operating, whichever is most restrictive.  When operating non-US registered aircraft, license validation or endorsement will be the responsibility of the customer.

Daily Pilot services will be paid in advanceby the customer, at the daily rates listed on the Professional Aviation Services website.  Charges commence upon Pilot dispatch from his home (domicile) and cease upon his return to his home (domicile).  Business class travel and accomodations are required for international assignments; economy class travel is acceptable for domestic assignments.

Cancellation within 24 hours of scheduled Pilot dispatch will result in a charge equal to the scheduled trip charge.

The Pilot shall not obligate Professional Aviation Services, Inc., nor incur expense without the agreement of Professional Aviation Services, Inc., and the customer.

The customer will name Professional Aviation Services, Inc., and its Pilots, as additionally insured, prior to dispatch.

The customer agrees not to contract with nor hire any Professional Aviation Services, Inc., Pilot for a period of nine months following the use of that Pilot without the written consent of Professional Aviation Services, Inc.  Breach of this contract shall result in payment to Professional Aviation Servces, Inc., as liquidated damages, the sum of a charge equal to the amount of contract or placement services had the Pilot been provided by Professional Aviation Services, Inc.

The customer agrees to waive the right of subrogation and to hold Professional Aviation Services, Inc., harmless from losses, legal fees, and costs arising out of acts or omissions of the Pilot while rendering his Pilot services.

In the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any breach thereof, either party may submit the matter to final and binding arbitration before, and in accordance with, the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association.  If a demand is made for arbitration, this arbitration provision shall be deemed self-executing, and if either party fails to appear at any properly noticed arbitration proceeding, an award may be entered against that party notwithstanding the failure to appear.  The arbitration shall be conducted in Fairfax County, Virginia.  The laws of Virginia shall govern this transaction.

The maximum duration of any single Pilot service project shall be 90 days.
