If you are "committing to friends and family to transport them", and that
is
the only reason for the flight, you are now an "air taxi". Just because I
have a Private Pilot Certificate doesn't mean I can be a "taxi service"
for
my friends and family and transport them around where ever they want to go
when they want to go.

Has anyone considered the possibility that these supposed rules are pure
unadulterated bull**** and perhaps we should just ignore them? With this
type of logic, when my daughter finally goes off to college, I would not be
able to give her a lift up there in my own plane... It's a form of
transportation just like a car... Instead of trying to 'work around' the
rules, we should be revolting against this sort of bull****...
