Ferry flights

Are there any legal hurdles for a CPL to watch out for when undertaking ferry flights for private owners within the UK? For payment ?
Only simple SEP flights from A-B jobs.

It does give some insight about just how scary it is in a SEP over the atlantic.

Thanks looks a good read. Don't fancy the Atlantic. Scary.

Insurance coverage is an important item. Never take on a flight unless the owner's insurance will cover you.

Thanks for the replys.
If there was a group of fellow instructors looking for some variations to daily flying is it possible to set up small business on the side of moving light a/c around the UK mainly as required ? Thinking setting up a website ? Any opinions are welcome ?
