While contemplating a "Celebrity Pilot's Suite" (or something like that) I
was just absent-mindedly searching the FAA database for movie stars, and found this: ******************************************* Name : JOLIE, ANGELINA Airman's Address : 1990 S BUNDY DR LOS ANGELES, CA, 90025-5240 FAA Region : Western/Pacific Date of Medical : Jun, 2004 Class of Medical : 3 Expiration of Class 3 privileges : Jun, 2007 Airman Certificates : Student Pilot : Private Pilot (foreign based) Airplane Single Engine Land ******************************************* Any idea what the "Private Pilot (foreign based)" is all about? Does this mean she's certificated in other countries that our own FAA doesn't recognize as legit? I know Harrison Ford and Tom Cruise are pilots, but can you list any others? Anyone know how to get in touch with these folks? I presume the addresses listed in the database really aren't where they live, but it would be fun to have pictures of each celebrity pilot in the suite, preferably autographed... Any ideas? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I sure wouldn't count George W. as a pilot. I'm sure that there are
thousands of ex-military pilots who are no longer in the pilot community...they never converted to civil airman status. Readers of mystery fiction should include Stuart Woods in the list.

George W. does have a FAA certificate, as does his father. I doubt that either of them have held valid medicals for years. Lots of famous folks have certificates, many have valid medicals, but its even more difficult to determine how many of those famous (or wealthy) folks are aviation enthusiasts. I would think that a Celebrity theme suite, as Jay expressed interest in, would benefit most from those who are truly enthusiasts, as opposed to those who hold certificate to get from point A to B.
