I got my Credit Card type US Private Pilot Certificate in the mail yesterday!! I’m so excited to finally do some fly away trips around the US!
Biennial Flight Review (All done!)
by Yasser on May.17, 2009, under Flying Story, General Rant
I did my Biennial Flight Review today. I did a flight to Santa Monica to Ontario (another major airport).
Ontario had two runways in Parallel. I was cleared to land on the right runway alongside a Southwest Airlines Airbus A320 which was landing on the left on the runway. It was a fascinating experience!
My Flight Review went well and now I have officially completed my transition from an Australian Pilot to a US Pilot.
I have my US Pilot’s License!

This morning I had my interview with the FAA and they looked over all my paperwork, Australian license, logbook, and verification letter and they issued me with a temporary US Private Pilot Certificate right there on the spot (until my permanent credit-card type one comes in the mail)! woohoo!
License Verification letter arrived!

I got my letter from the FAA today confirming that they have verified my Australian Private Pilot License and to go ahead and make an appointment with the ‘Flight Standards and District Office’ and apply for my US Private Pilot Certificate!
My appointment is next Monday, so wish me luck!
