Scary isn't it.

whats an UKpaper????
oh you mean my australian ICAO format pilot's licence?

as a piece of trivia do you realise that there actually isnt
an
Australian Pilot's Licence as such.
it is called an aircrew licence down under.

I dont find it scarey. If I owned an australian certified
aircraft I could just fly it to america, pass customs etc,
and
continue for a tour. no checking at all.
for me to fly a US registered aircraft I need an FAA issued
licence.

we have the same reciprocal arrangement in australia.

Stealth Pilot

Stealth.. the original OP was UK, I believe
We don't have licenses either.. we have Certificates.

Pity, *"License" has a certain je ne sais qois.

Cheers

this is a red herring but the licence vs certificate issue is
quite
important in australia.

icao recognised things that mean you can fly overseas are called
"licences"
domestic approvals that can only be exercised within the country
of
issue are called "certificates"

in australia General Aviation pilots have licences and ultralight
pilots have certificates.


Sounds fair enough to me. Some of those ultralights belong only to
the
certifiable.
