Default Is the pilot license needed...?

Good question. If you never had a pilot's license the federales can't
take it away, can they??


Exactly. And unless you start checking credentials before each and
every flight, enforcement is difficult.

I know of a local guy that got busted by the
FAA a year or two ago for flying a King Air 200 on charter without a
license. He never held so much as a PPL, but through his association
with the FBO that he runs he weaseled into the left seat.


Did anything happen to the FBO?
