The point of all the additional 'commercial' regulation is to reduce the risk for the general public - people who may not know, and have no real way of assessing the risk themselves. Agreed, and it's a valid regulatory purpose that I support. In this case, we have "Mark" flying an A&P and a couple of pilots on a repair mission. All know the risks they are running, such as they are. I say good luck to "Mark". He can even make a profit so far as I care. In this case, the FAA regulations have missed their 'safety' rationale & merely function as a protectionist device for the benefit of air taxi operators. Of course, rewriting the regulations to permit this while protecting the public using real air taxi services is the challenge. I think you can do this pretty well by prohibiting "holding out" and any payments beyond reimbursement. An air taxi operation can't operate under those restrictions. Reimbursement of direct expenses seems reasonable to me and isn't commercial activity.
