(keeping this at least partially aviation-focused) a lot of DC
isn't in touch with much of GA anywhere in the USA.

BUT... if you are carrying passengers, the exception doesnt hold, and
you have to have the cat/class for the plane.. (restating what was
mentioned initially..)

Not necessarily. The Registry is always a little out of date. The pilot

be ASES for a couple or three months before it shows in the registry.

Ok... I was just wondering, I kept seeing Todd Palin's float plane moored
in the Palin's backyard when she was doing all those interviews. The
Registry shows him as SEL.

Could be that he's signed off solo. However, I read somewhere that the
FAA estimates that about 25% of all pilots in Alaska are not properly
rated. Alaska is a long way from DC and they're not always excited to
follow regulations that are brought to them from 5,000 miles away. In
fact there is a pretty big movement of people in Alaska who want to
leave the union because they feel that DC is far too out of touch with
the realities of living in remote Alaska.

Then we should all leave the union, because they seem to be a good bit out
of touch with the realities of living just about anywhere.

You first. I'm sure we could take up a collection here and pay for a 1-way
ticket to Stupidarseholestan. It's not that much different than Oklahoma.
You'd be right at home there.

Bon voyage.
