How is this different from charter or 135? If they are the same, they

As far as I know, they're all the same. It's been a while since I was a
charter pilot but it was all done under part 135. I have no idea why the
identifier is different. Maybe the operator has canned flight plans that
spit out the identifier?

When I was flying charter, my flight plans didn't indicate that I was
doing anything different than any part 91 operation. I was flying for a
FBO, so it wasn't like we were running a mini airline.





According to the AIM...

Pilots operating under provisions of 14 CFR Part 135 and not having an FAA
assigned 3-letter designator, are urged to prefix the normal registration
(N) number with the letter "T" on flight plan filing; e.g., TN1234B.

But lots of folks never do it.
