Also, renting an airplane to even a student pilot is not a
"for hire" operation and the airplane does not need the 100
inspection.

Is this true? If I own an airplane and a friend who is a CFI keeps
borrowing my plane to instruct a third party for his personal fee, the
plane needs a hundred hour inspection? I'm new at this game, but that
doesn't sound right. My understanding is that if the plane is a rental,
it needs a hundred hour inspection. I am certain that the flying club I
belong to has hundred hour inspections only due to the club rules not
the FAA. The planes in my club are considered owned by each member, not
rented.
