Default Canadian Pilot wants U.S. Certificate

Your Canadian certificate does not say Private Glider or Commercial Glider?
I had not seen that before. We get a few of visitors each year that already
hold their US FAA Pvt Certificate based on their Foreign, (UK, AUS or
Canada) certificate.

Snip

Since the commercial licence is a higher qualification I would have
thought the common sense thing is to treat it as a Private Glider
licence - but when did common sense have much to do with it?

Sense(any kind) and aviation bureaucracy are generally strangers.
