You don't have to be the owner of the airplane to do it with a private
certificate.

Well, being short of cash to fly with and reading about NW_PILOT's trip
of a lifetime ferrying a 172 across the Atlantic has left me wondering:
Is a commerical pilot certificate required to ferry an airplane for
someone? I think the answer is yes, even if I'm not being paid to fly,
if they pick up the tab for the plane & fuel. Am I correct?
