Incidentally, is it not the case that a pilot with a CPL (any ICAO CPL) can fly beyond the 25nm radius? I vaguely recall this is one of the very few (and largely useless) privileges of a CPL outside an AOC context.

It matters not who it is given or promised to
Which bit of the ANO enables a PPL to self fly hire a plane and fly it alone? Money is passing from one party to another, after all.
