CPL - Licence to carry passengers?

just a quick question, I wanted to clear up something I read regarding the CPL. (Apologies if I've missed an obvious answer already posted, I've had a quick scan round here, but getting through all the ATPL threads was taking too long lol)

If you have a CPL would you be licensed to carry a member of the paying public on a short pleasure flight, for example sight seeing etc...? Rather than physically transporting them from A to B say?


Are there further licensing requirements for taking paying passengers and performing aerobatics, or letting them control the aircraft for simple turns etc... note this is not for Flight Instruction purposes but just for pleasure.

finally, does an aircraft type have to be certified for said public transportation, and does that only cover A to B flights or would this also be required for short pleasure flights?

cheers in advance
