Postponed 3 students due to TSA

rated pilots who are not instructors take
"friends" for short "rides"...?? If the pilot were to elect to show a friend
how he touches the controls for a moment every now and then, I don't see
where an infraction comes into play...I don't think there's any rules about

It seems to me that if I am just taking someone for a ride, I am not exercising
the priveleges of my CFI, it is either my private or commercial that I am using
at that point.

However, if I happen to use a syllabus, give ground instruction, fly with the
person, and then log the flight as instruction received in their log book, then
I am doing the CFI bit. Of course, I've seen many CFI skip the syllabus and
ground instruction bit too, so maybe it just boils down to how the flight is
logged, if logged at all.
