	Private Pilot Licence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Private Pilot Licence (or, in the United States, a certificate) permits the holder to operate an aircraft, initially only under visual flight rules.
		In most countries, a private pilot possessing an instrument rating may also conduct flights under instrument flight rules.
		Passengers may be carried and flight in furtherance of a business is permitted; however, a private pilot may not be compensated in any way for services as a pilot and must pay at least the pro rata share of a flight's expenses.

	Pilot certification in the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A commercial airplane pilot must be able to operate a complex airplane, as a specific number of hours of complex (or turbine-powered) aircraft time are among the prerequisites, and at least a portion of the practical examination is performed in a complex aircraft.
		All certified pilots, with the exception of those with a sport pilot certificate or when in command of balloons or gliders, are required to maintain a medical certification commensurate with the privileges they intend to exercise as pilot-in-command of an aircraft.
		Pilots do not need FCC licenses to use the radio within the United States; however, other countries (such as Canada) may require that the pilot and/or the radio be licensed.

	Plane & Pilot Magazine \| The New Sport-Pilot License Is Here!
		Like private pilots, sport pilots also will be required to pass a written exam and a practical flight test with an FAA examiner or designee.
		Since the FAA is concerned that pilots whose airman medical certificates have been denied, suspended or revoked, or whose authorizations for special issuance of a medical certificate have been withdrawn would be allowed to operate light-sport aircraft under the proposed rule, it has made a few conditions to the medical provision.
		That means that pilots who know that they have a medical condition that would deem them unfit to fly can’t use their U.S. driver’s licenses as replacements for medical certificates.
