New FAA Commercial Astronaut certificate?

So if you fly to the International Space Station and stay for more than
90 days, does that mean you can't fly home with passengers onboard?

You have to undock and redock three times first. If you're in shadow,
you have to do it in shadow.

I am curious to know the CTAF for Pluto...

Does Lockheed get the FSS contract for this, too?

Yes, but it goes to their Space Systems division...

True, but in between the surface and the outer space? You gotta get
out there somehow right?

What are the required maneuvers for the one-hour of flight to fullfil a
BFR?

Setting a stable orbit
Changes of orbital inclination
Docking and undocking procedures
Gravitational slingshots
Atmospheric braking

Additionally, you must make three docking and undocking manoevres to a
full stop every 90 days to be current to carry passengers.

Name another country on the planet has the resources to to control it?

IFR Flight plans for reentry expire following the second orbit after the
filed reentry time. If you do not hit your proposed reentry window you
must refile. No flight below FL600 will be permitted without operating
equipment specified by ICAO for flight in Class A Airspace.

In that case, each has to be to a full stop.

And I thought multiengine would be expensive...


Maybe not. I found out that a commercial airship ticket would be more
expensive. A space shuttle certification is accomplished in a simulator.
