Gliderport Fined $9,000 over Use of 123.3Mhz
I pulled this from the FCC website:
Licensing On October 25, 1996, the FCC released a Report and Order in WT Docket No. 96-82 (text) eliminating the individual licensing requirement for all aircraft, including scheduled air carriers, air taxis and general aviation aircraft operating domestically. This means that you do not need a license to operate a two-way VHF radio, radar, or emergency locator transmitter (ELT) aboard aircraft operating domestically. I guess TSA must have a base station. I am not sure what type of license is needed for hand-held radios. Someone should contact TSA and find out the details.
