Anyone who has ever dealt with the Feds, be it FAA, FCC, DEA, SSA, IRS, or others (dare I mention TSA), knows that there is no letter of the Law and interpretation is at the whim of the local King. I once had a King of the local FSDO tell me to "throw out 43.13, because it is advisory and means nothing to me".
Let someone use your aircraft for free and charge them for parking in your hangar while they are using your aircraft. Then you only have to deal with local licensing authorities regulating parking structures!
As a CFI, charge them for ground instruction, pre and post flight instruction, and critique of their flight maneuvers from a ground based standpoint.
It's all in the fine print; and I do mean ALL.
The preceeding was for recreational and humorous purposes only, and in no way is to be construed as instruction, opinion, or the political stance of the author.
