Private pilot license
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. |

Private pilot license
Bob Moore wrote:
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 |
