You bring up some valid points.
As for qualified pilots, there are only eight of my a/c flying in Canada so to hire a pilot with a commercial license that is current on type is unlikely, secondly, I am also the mechanic that signs out the a/c.
As for being paid the contract will clearly state that payment etc is for rental of the a/c and there is no charge for pilot duties are . Still I wiil consult local Dept of Transport people.
Thanks
