If the owner of the aircraft or "Club" is making money ( profit ) from the operation.
Presently many parachute operations require only private licences but earn a hell of a lot of money from the aircraft, pilots deserve to be paid.
Do not think for a second that if CASA stipulates an operation "private", the pilot is any less entitled to payment.
Do not ever ever ever work for free.
