 Student Pilot license (certificate) is designed for the initial training period of flying. The student pilot must have a flight instructor present. He or she can solo after appropriate instructor endorsements.  Recreational Pilot certificate limits the holder to: specific categories and classes

  • f aircraft, the number of passengers which may be carried, the distance that may be

flown from the departure point, flight into controlled airports, and other limitations.  Private Pilot certificate lets the pilot carry passengers and provides for limited business use of an airplane.  Commercial Pilot certificate lets the pilot conduct some operations for compensation and hire.  Airline Transport Pilot certificate is required to fly as captain by some air transport operations.

Instrument Rating

The instrument rating, which equips you with the exacting skills needed to fly in the clouds and under conditions of reduced visibility, is the most frequent "next step" taken by private pilots seeking to advance their aeronautical education. If the private pilot certificate is the airman's bachelor's degree, the instrument rating is graduate school. Although some instructors advocate moving straight into instrument training after earning the private pilot certificate, others suggest waiting awhile until you have built up flying time, solidified your skills in the airplane, and gained the confidence as a pilot to tackle instrument training with assurance. There are no steadfast rules. It's really a matter of your own comfort level.

Runway Numbering System A runway's compass direction is indicated by a large number painted at the end of each runway, and is not written in degrees, but is given a shorthand format. For example, a runway with a marking of "14" is actually close to (if not a direct heading of) 140 degrees. This is a southeast compass heading. A runway with a marking of "31" has a compass heading of 310 degrees, that is, a northwest direction. For simplicity, the precise heading is rounded off to the nearest tens. How is a Runway “Active?” Air craft take off and land best when they do it into the wind. Therefore they direction of flight will determine the direction a runway will be used. This sets up what number it is, each end has a number. The number on the end that you would first see if you were landing is the number of that direction of a runway.
