Jose, tell us from where does your vast knowledge of the US aviation
regulatory system come. It comes from almost fifty years of studying and using the English language (and I will refrain from commenting on the structure of the above quoted sentence). It comes from Usenet posts (that is, I am not offering my independent knowledge, but rather, my interpretation of the knowledge that is offered as support for the position with which I disagree) Jose -- Money: what you need when you run out of brains. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |

It is this little bit of freedom granted to citizens of the United States of America that makes the difference between license and certificate. "United State Code TITLE 49 - TRANSPORTATION Sec. 40103. Sovereignty and use of airspace (2) A citizen of the United States has a public right of transit through the navigable airspace." No further granting of permission (license) is required, however, a demonstration of training or ability (certification) may be required. Note the ultralight Part 103 exception to the certificate requirement. This appears to me to be the classic case of a distinction without a difference. If a demonstration of training or ability is required in order to exercise a right, then it is hardly a right at all. Matt |

"Jose" wrote The certificate confers permission to =pilot= a craft, which is more than the "right of transit" granted above. Therefore it is a license. My take on the whole thing is that the FAA give a certificate that says you have passed the requirements to pilot a plane, *if* you meet many other requirements, such as a current medical, current BFR, currency, as in recent piloting to meet standards for carrying passengers, or conditions. (night, or IFR as examples) A driver's license gives you unconditional permission to drive a car, as long as you are not impaired. A certificate gives you permission to fly a plane, only if you meet all of the other requirements. If it were a license, you would be good to fly, without other strings attached. Am I close? g Nope, not even. My PA driver's license requires several things of me: 1. I must wear corrective lenses. 2. I can drive only the class of vehicles listed on my license. 3. I must renew the license every year by getting my picture taken any paying $36 or so to the state I'd hardly say that this is unconditional or without strings attached. :-) Matt |
