Bertie is correct, bring over your UK Papers.. and if the

Scary isn't it.

whats an UKpaper????
oh you mean my australian ICAO format pilot's licence?
as a piece of trivia do you realise that there actually
isnt
an
Australian Pilot's Licence as such.
it is called an aircrew licence down under.
I dont find it scarey. If I owned an australian certified
aircraft I could just fly it to america, pass customs etc,
and
continue for a tour. no checking at all.
for me to fly a US registered aircraft I need an FAA
issued
licence.
we have the same reciprocal arrangement in australia.
Stealth Pilot
Stealth.. the original OP was UK, I believe
We don't have licenses either.. we have Certificates.
Pity, *"License" has a certain je ne sais qois.
Cheers
this is a red herring but the licence vs certificate issue is
quite
important in australia.
icao recognised things that mean you can fly overseas are
called
"licences"
domestic approvals that can only be exercised within the
country
of
issue are called "certificates"
in australia General Aviation pilots have licences and
ultralight
pilots have certificates.
Sounds fair enough to me. Some of those ultralights belong only
to
the
certifiable.

It beats the heck of out lawn furniture powered by kids balloons...
True.. You can have 'em both, though!

Whatta ya going to do with it? Drop M-80s on London?
Some idiot probably will, someday..
