Can a PP give demo flights

Post by Merlinspop »

As a Private Pilot with no medical, I know I could earn a CFI-P and give lessons to SP students. But if I were working at an LSA dealership, would I be able to provide demo rides to potential buyers? I thought I read somewhere that demo pilots needed a valid medical, but can't find it now.

Just thinking out loud.

Bruce, the solution is for you to get your CFI (under either Subpart H or K) and then give the prospective aircraft customer an introductory lesson.
The opinions posted are those of one CFI, and do not necessarily represent the FAA or its lawyers.

Yeah... that's the way the daydreams have been going during my mind-numbing commutes.
