It is a privilege though; just based on:
- Having the money to afford the training for the pilots license
- Having the time to complete the training and stay current
- Having no health issues that may deny you a medical
It is pretty out of reach for most people with out the time / funds for it.
- LanceH 4y agoHaving the fortune of health/time/money is a privilege. Getting the license after meeting the requirements should automatically follow and not be at the whims of privilege. I do get what you're saying, but there are people using "privilege not a right" literally to mean that someone gets to decide whether the person is worthy beyond some standard criteria.
- _s 4y agoYup I see the distinction and I agree with you. It also means that you will loose that right for breaking any rules / regulations of that license; but the gray area I guess is the unwritten rules governing safety alongside written ones. We’ll likely see amendments codifying those unwritten rules into existing legislation soon enough.
