Ferry flight a commercial op?
The FAA can consider the logging of "free flight time" as compensation.

Our flying club sold our PA32R Lance because very few people were flying
it. As one of that few, I offered to ferry it out to the buyer. A CFI in
the club said I can't, because it's a commercial operation, even though
I'm not getting paid. Is he right?
If your club is not specifically charging the new owner to deliver the
aircraft,
and you are not receiving compensation for delivering it,
you are good to go.
I have never heard of a case where accruing hours during a flight was
considered compensation.
