Liftbrief / Readiness quiz
How should you complete the quiz?
Choose one live decision: a charter booking, a jet-card or membership purchase, or a programme renewal. Answer for the documents and confirmations you have now, not what you expect someone to provide later.
- Select one answer per question: A = 0, B = 1, C = 2, D = 3 points.
- If your evidence falls between two answers, choose the lower score. If you do not know, choose A.
- Add all 15 scores. The maximum is 45 points; unanswered questions count as zero and leave the assessment incomplete.
- Apply the hold conditions below. A high total cannot cancel a critical unresolved issue.
- Record your three weakest answers, an action owner and a completion deadline.
For a one-off charter: answer against that itinerary and its payment terms. You do not need a jet card, annual flight history or multiple suppliers to earn full points.
For a programme purchase or renewal: use representative missions, recent usage where available, and your proposed future travel. Questions about aircraft assignment should assess both current programme evidence and the documented process for checking each future flight. Label the result programme-commitment readiness; flight-specific checks still required.
Scope: the FAA distinguishes Part 135 charter from fractional operations under Part 91 Subpart K, which have a different approval framework. This quiz is principally for whole-aircraft charter and access-programme procurement; fractional acquisitions, aircraft management, international permissions and larger airline-operated group charters need additional specialist review.

What does the scoring mean?
| Points | Evidence standard used in this quiz |
|---|---|
| 0 | Unknown, absent or not considered |
| 1 | Preference, assumption, brochure statement or verbal reassurance |
| 2 | Written evidence exists, but a material question or review remains |
| 3 | Evidence has been checked for this decision, responsibilities are assigned and the relevant exposure is understood |
These are editorial procurement criteria, not regulatory thresholds or a statistically validated assessment. An unfavourable term can be fully understood; however, a term that breaches a non-negotiable requirement or exceeds authorised exposure still triggers a hold.
