To expand on Darryl's accurate observations, there are two terms unfortunately often confused and mistakenly used interchangeably by some who have not analyzed the FARs correctly.
There are AIRPLANES and there are AIRCRAFT. These two words look like they should mean the same thing, but they do not. Balloons, gliders, hang gliders, ultralights, hang gliders and a host of other things are AIRCRAFT.
Boeing 787s, Beech Bonanzas, Cirrus 22s, Gulfstream 650s, Cessna Citations and all the other similar flying machines are AIRPLANES.
You cannot get an AIRPLANE rating in an AIRCRAFT.
Although there is a particularly confusing exception involving a turbojet powered two-seat glider (Aircraft) being stuffed into an Airplane category.
I have a Private Pilot Certificate (Glider), but I also have a turbojet rating in Bob Carlton's BonusJet glider (
www.desertaerospace.com). Right now, I think I am the only pilot in the world with a turbojet type rating, but no power certificate. I have the certificate in my pocket, but the FAA is still scratching its collective head trying to figure out how this is possible.
It's simple. We read their regulations better than they wrote them.
