Hee Hee ,
That is why I put my sport pilot license remark in the thread ! I was
really wondering why it took so long to get someone to say HEY that's not a
license! But as one person had guessed, I put SPL for Sport Pilot Land. SP
would work just as well I believe because I think the Land would be assumed
by most..but SPL just sounds so dern important! But for now I just have
the good old student pilot certificate. But if the funds hold out it won't
be long and I can take the student thing off there!
Just all kinds of those little certificates I need to get,..I guess next
on the list will be to go ahead and get the Airframes. Funny how I only need
it now I want my own plane!!!!! Makes you wonder why there is not a
General Certificate and only the A&P? Hmmmm you take three series of test ,
seems it would be three certificates. Ah the joys of the FAA !

Yes,
Sport Pilots can get a seaplane endorsement....but just signing as SP
would just mean land would it not? Hmm So I guess maybe we won't confuse
anyone if I just keep it SPL.


I think what everyone has been pussy-footing around is the fact that
several people suspect you mean "Sport Pilot License" by those initials.
There's no such thing. As is the case with all the little goodies the FAA
grants, it's a certificate.
