Well what I mean is for pay. I am thinking of one pilot in particular who was flying a Beechjet on the side for pay. So that kind of Part 91.

As to what Bar said, the legal letter I got back from the FAA when I asked them a question about charitable flying was that if you receive a benefit of any time then that is compensation and you need by a commercial pilot and operator. I think they provided an exemption but as Bar implied that whole thing is murky. And the best person I've ever seen making a living out of that murkiness was from the FAA. It helps if you put your friends in an awkward situation and nothing is really ever done.
