Plus it was perfectly legal under part 91 flying. 225 Live lobsters in a Seneca, haha, lot's of fun!!!
Hope that gets your brain juices flowing!! Now go get creative!!
Kindly explain how going around and advertising - on a one to one in person basis - a cargo service; and then renting an airplane and flying said cargo is within the FAR's without an air carrier certificate of some type.... have you read 119 & 135? Yes, a commerical pilot may fly those flights, but to hold out the service (commonly called advertising - which is what you did when you went soliciting) drops it squarely into a 135 operation, which trips a whole new set of rules and requirements.
