Sorry but there is no such thing as "Commercial Ops". There is part 61, 91, 121, 135, 141 and so on. Just because you rent a plane for flight instruction does not mean all of a sudden you are a 135 carrier. It simply means inspections change, you need a business license, and you need to pay taxes for income. Otherwise you would have to shut down 99% of the flight schools in the United States leaving open only the 141 schools.
