Operational control does not mean merely having posession of the aircraft. I strongly advise that in the absence of evidence of an ownership share, there should be some type of lease agreement that includes stipulations for how the airplane is maintained, the duration of the lease, and specifics regarding just who is leasing the airplane.
I don't want to harp on this - if you want to really explore the legality of operating under Part 91, print out a copy of this thread, bring it to your local General Aviation Operations Inspector at the FSDO, and ask him what he thinks.
There is also sufficient information in the FAR's themselves for you to determine what is legal. Daily rentals with pilot services will get you into trouble - and I don't think it will take long at that.
