Giving Aerial Tours in a Rental Aircraft
Hi all,
I was thinking of a way to build some time since I have my commercial license, and was thinking of offering sightseeing flights over my college campus for a fee. I've read the relevant section of FAR 119 several times, but want to make sure that it would be legal. I would be renting a Cessna from a local flight club for these flights, which I would *advertise* all around campus. From my commercial training I remember the debate versus common vs. private carriage, but the FARs seem to specifically mention that aerial sightseeing is permitted if conducted within 25 miles of the originating airport.
I'm not sure how much of a grey area I might be in, or maybe I'm in a definite black or white area. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!
