Advice wanted for charity flying
I have been asked if I want to get involved with raising money for charity - the idea is for a small village fair (or similar) to offer 10 minute charity flights for joe public in a Robinson R44.
My understanding is that this is not permitted on my PPL (I would venture its for CPL only!). I normally only offer flights to friends etc paying their share. This request to me seems to be well out of bounds for all sorts of reasons (licence restrictions, low flying regs, insurance, need for ground crew etc).
Ever keen to keep strictly safe, within the law and within the limitations of my PPL, my gut reaction is to say NO.
Any of you guys got any constructive advice....

Thanks NF - thats just the sort of document I was looking for.
I found another document too - exempting charity flights from aerial work.
Having read the AIC I can't comply - I don't have enough PIC hours... but thanks for locating the info.
