Guys/Girls,
I would really be careful with all of this as mentioned above by someone there are many gray areas and the FAA can pretty much do what they want when they want , so your 60k + investment in your wallet is pretty critical at this point Im not trying to run the show but just saying becareful with it if you do go ahead and make the decision to operate a little scenic run here and there.... LOL

§ 135.1 Applicability.
(a) This part prescribes rules governing—

(5) Nonstop sightseeing flights for compensation or hire that begin and end at the same airport, and are conducted within a 25 statute mile radius of that airport; however, except for operations subject to SFAR 50–2, these operations, when conducted for compensation or hire, must comply only with §§135.249, 135.251, 135.253, 135.255, and 135.353.

Kinda covers it from the 135 aspect.

Oh, and by the way, I too am a CFI! Not that this fact makes my comments any more or less relevant.
