In a previous article, Helen said:
Here's a good write-up on the subject. Note in the case listed, it
wasn't even logged flight hours that the FAA cited as "compensation,"
but simply "good will."

But that's carrying passengers. I'm not going to be carrying passengers.



IO still think you're OK. There's the letter of the law and the spirit of
the law. The law requiring you to have a commercial licence to fly for
dough is to further public safety. IOW someone paying for flying has a
right to a certain standards otherwise we'd have a bunch of Anthonys flying
airliners.
Your operation would not endanger the public anymore than if you were fling
your own or a rented airplane from a to b.
Having said that, some FAA types are natural born policemen and can't see
past the nose on their faces. Most can, though.
