I have a friend with a PP-SEL that was coming back on a commuter flight
from the Bahamas....
Does the FAA have authority over a flight operating over international
waters?


They do if the plane has an N number. For that matter they have authority
over an N numbered plane over foreign soil.


And if it's operating on an US operators certificate (135).
