I don't fly enough to need a new one every 56 days, and I generally decide where I'm going to fly the day of, or maybe a few days before, otherwise that would be an option. Used to be you could buy any localish sectional in just about any FBO. I only know of one anywhere near here that still sells them.
Because they are not interchangeable. And if you asked AI, this is yet another example of where AI often screw up with aviation.
They're not interchangeable; not all certificates are licenses and not all licenses are certificated. But pilot licenses and driver licenses are both certificated.
As I learned today in some company training… “role playing in the classroom will literally put the learner in someone else’s shoes.”
Well every first-year law student knows that a license is a right to enter property and take something away, and that it's revocable unless combined with an interest. So, maybe?
To be accurate. As fun as flying is, there is a need to be accurate. So probably why so many pilots prefer to use the correct term. Also, you spent a lot of time, sweat and tears to get that "certificate" so get it right!
Umm... NO. Think about it.
) So... stick with me on this... No, your CFI Certificate never expires, but you "privileges" (or authority or currency) to perform the duties of a CFI expire. You mean his license to instruct? His "instructor license"? And my CFI certificate certainly does expire. It says so right on it.
Making up definitions decreases accuracy and understanding.
Not sure why you're hung up on "instructors license" but you be you. The rest of us will call it what it is. But if you find a "License" number on it, let us know.
Is it now a requirement that licenses have numbers?
And it is your CFI privileges that expire, not the Certificate.
But do tell me if you find where your Certificate Expires anywhere in there (or anywhere else) or the word "license."
So you are drawing a clear distinction between "permission for a specific amount of time" and "privileges that expire"? These things are entirely different and mutually exclusive in your opinion?
Yes, and if you do a little research, I think you'll find that is going away.
I disagree that "certificate" is the only correct term. If it were, we would be receiving driver certificates instead of driver licenses. Furthermore, the FAA uses both terms. Notice that the first pilot's identification card issued contained the words, "Pilot's License No. 1."To be accurate. As fun as flying is, there is a need to be accurate. So probably why so many pilots prefer to use the correct term. Also, you spent a lot of time, sweat and tears to get that "certificate" so get it right!
I was in in various "technology" areas for years. So I'm one of those people that like the correct words used as you can spend hours running around chasing the wrong issue based on what you were originally told was the problem, not what had the issue was they were experiencing. My staff would get so ****ed when they'd come in needing me to come look at a major issue and my first words were "is it plugged in?" A large percentage of the time it was not an equipment issue it was a cable or yes, a connector that was not firmly seated.
