Actually, he's correct. Flying is a privalege, not a right.


Actually, he's wrong. Review my response to Martin X. Moleski earlier in
this thread to understand why.



The FARs even use that language.


Many confuse "right" and "privilege", the fact remains that flying has
been
declared to be a right in the US.

By whom? If it's a right, why do we need a license?

Remember what happened after 9/11? The government took
away everyone's privalege to fly, but took away no one's right to free
speech.


Apparently you're not familiar with the McCain-Feingold act.

Non-sequitur.
