One question...does time in the Sim count towards TFT? Im guessing not but wasn't sure???
The rules on private flying are simple:

1. You can carry upto 3 passengers.
2. They can pay provided you pay at least an equal share of the flight cost for the number of people on board.
3. The flight cannot be advertised formally, but word of mouth amongst friends will be fine.

You can only count sim time if it was a designated flight test: I have two hours in an A330 sim but it was fun not a test so it doesn't count.
