Gordy-
I don't know if he did or didn't violate a particular rule paragraph of the FARs and can't be bothered to look. All I'm saying is that if there was a rule violation, there's no meaningful action that can be taken by the FAA against the model if she doesn't hold an airman certificate. If the airman feels he's exercising good judgment doing what he's doing, I suppose that's his business if the FAA doesn't find any rule violation.
What I do know is that the status of the pilot's airman certificate as published on the certification website does not match the standard format, which normally tends to indicate a reaction of some kind on the part of the FAA, which is why I said draw your own conclusions.
The indications on the Airman Certification website are analogous to when a pilot has an alcohol incident, and a similar statement is appended to the information on the pilot's medical.
I believe this is done for the benefit of any potential employers doing due diligence.

I see what you were going for now. I did a quick check on some people I know with violations etc and got a few different different formats.

There is alway 91.13 careless and reckless operation.
"No person may operate an aircraft, other than for the purpose of air navigation, on any part of the surface of an airport used by aircraft for air commerce (including areas used by those aircraft for receiving or discharging persons or cargo), in a careless or reckless manner so as to endanger the life or property of another."

The model perhaps endangered just her own life (seems she wasn't restrained and forced to be there) but I am not sure if she is the property of somebody else..
