Sport Pilot Certificate : ウィキペディア英語版
Pilot certification in the United States

Pilot certification in the United States is typically required for an individual to act as a pilot of an aircraft. It is regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), a branch of the Department of Transportation (DOT). A pilot is certified under the authority of Parts 61 or (if training was conducted by an FAA-approved school) 141 of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, also known as the Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs).
An FAA-issued ''pilot certificate'' is evidence that an individual is duly authorized to exercise piloting privileges. The pilot certificate is one of several kinds of ''airman certificates'' issued by the FAA.
==General structure of certification==
A pilot is certified to fly aircraft at one or more named ''privilege levels'' and, at each privilege level, rated to fly aircraft of specific ''categories''. Privilege levels of pilot certificates are, in order of increasing privilege:〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = US Code of Federal Regulations, Federal Aviation Regulations )〕
*Student Pilot: an individual who is learning to fly under the tutelage of a flight instructor and who is permitted to fly alone under specific, limited circumstances
*Sport Pilot: an individual who is authorized to fly only Light-sport Aircraft
*Recreational Pilot: an individual who may fly aircraft of up to and 4 seats in the daytime for pleasure only
*Private Pilot: an individual who may fly for pleasure or personal business, generally without accepting compensation
*Commercial Pilot: an individual who may, with some restrictions, fly for compensation or hire
*Airline Transport Pilot (often called ATP): an individual authorized to act as pilot for a scheduled airline. (First Officers that fly under 14CFR 121 are required to hold an Airline Transport Pilot Certificate as of August 1, 2013.)
Pilots can be rated in these aircraft categories:〔〔ultralight category of aircraft in the US requires no specific training and no certification. Examples include powered parachute, and weight-shift-control aircraft. However, sporting groups give extensive training and certification for these aircraft.〕
* Airplane
* Rotorcraft
* Glider
* Lighter than air
* Powered lift
* Powered parachute
* Weight-shift control
Most aircraft categories are further broken down into ''classes''. If a category is so divided, a pilot must hold a class rating to operate an aircraft in that class:〔
* The Airplane category is divided into single-engine land (ASEL), multi-engine land (AMEL), single-engine sea (ASES), and multi-engine sea (AMES) classes
* The Rotorcraft category is divided into helicopter and gyroplane classes
* The Lighter-than-air category is divided into airship and balloon classes
* The Powered parachute category is divided into powered parachute land and powered parachute sea
* The Weight-shift-control category is divided into weight-shift-control land and weight-shift-control sea
A student pilot certificate does not list category or class ratings but is instead endorsed by a flight instructor to confer privileges in specific makes and models of aircraft.
A ''type rating'' is required in a specific make and model of aircraft if the aircraft weighs more than at takeoff or is powered by one or more turbojet engines. The Boeing 747, Beechcraft Super King Air 350, and the Hawker Hunter are examples of aircraft that require type ratings.〔
To legally operate under instrument flight rules (IFR), a pilot can separately add an instrument rating to a private or commercial certificate. An airline transport pilot implicitly holds an instrument rating, so the instrument rating does not appear on an ATP certificate. The FAA issues instrument ratings separately for airplane and powered lift categories and the helicopter class (INSTA and INSTH).〔 Glider and airship pilots may also operate under Instrument Flight Rules under certain circumstances.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = US Code of Federal Regulations, Federal Aviation Regulations )
〕 An individual may hold only one pilot certificate at one time; that certificate may authorize multiple privilege levels distinguished by aircraft category, class or type. For example, an Airline Transport Pilot certificate holder may be permitted to exercise ATP privileges when flying multi-engine land airplanes, but only Commercial Pilot privileges when flying single-engine land airplanes and gliders. Similarly a Commercial Pilot holder with a glider rating may have only Private Pilot privileges for single-engine land airplanes.
The FAA may impose ''limitations'' on a pilot certificate if, during training or the practical test, the pilot does not demonstrate all skills necessary to exercise all privileges of a privilege level, category, class or type rating. For example, a holder of a DC-3 type rating who does not demonstrate instrument flying skills during the practical test would be assigned a limitation reading, "DC-3 (VFR Only)".
To obtain a certificate or add a rating, a pilot usually has to undergo a course of training with a Certificated Flight Instructor (CFI) under 14CFR61 or enroll at an approved course at a 14CFR141 approved flight school. The applicant must accumulate and log specific aeronautical experience, and pass a three-part examination: a ''knowledge test'' (a computerized multiple-choice test, typically called the "written test"), an ''oral'' test, and a ''practical'' test carried out by either an FAA inspector or a Designated Pilot Examiner.
Another form of authorization is an ''endorsement'' from a flight instructor that establishes that the certificate holder has received training in specific skill areas that do not warrant a full test, such as the ability to fly a tailwheel-equipped, high-performance, complex, or pressurized airplane.
Pilot certificates other than student pilot certificates do not expire, although they may be suspended or revoked by the FAA.〔Certain privileges conferred by a pilot certificate are restricted when the holder reaches age 60 and expire at age 65. See (【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = US Code of Federal Regulations, Federal Aviation Regulations )〕 However, a pilot must maintain ''currency'' — recent flight experience that is relevant to the flight being undertaken. To remain current, every pilot has to undergo a flight review with an instructor every 24 calendar months unless she or he gains a new pilot certificate or rating in that time or satisfies the flight review requirement using an alternate approved means. For most types of certificate, she or he must also undergo a medical examination at intervals ranging from six months to five years, depending on the pilot's age and desired flight privileges. Other currency requirements apply to the carriage of passengers or to flight under instrument flight rules (IFR).
A medical certificate is not necessary to fly a glider, balloon, or light-sport Aircraft. An ultralight aircraft may be piloted without a pilot certificate or a medical certificate.
In addition to pilot certificates, the FAA issues separate airman certificates for Flight Engineers, Flight Instructors, Ground Instructors, Aircraft Dispatchers, Mechanics, Repairmen, Parachute Riggers, Control Tower Operators, Flight Navigators, and Flight Attendants.〔
