You can fly a plane without a licence just like you can drive a car without a licence. No problem at all. Until you're caught or in a crash.
You can't however, unlike a car, fly a plane without having been taught. If you try, you may be able to get in the air, but the difficult part is getting back on the ground alive.
- Dalewyn 3y agoWe can't drive a car without having been taught either. Granted, the amount of training required to drive a car pales in comparison to flying an aircraft, but it's not like humans can just drive a car straight out of the womb.
- OJFord 3y agoIf it's an automatic, you only really need a vague cultural awareness of what a car is and how it works I think. (Ignoring driving well, fuel efficiently, understanding road markings, etc. - just enough to get around and improve as you go.) Push this to go, steer direction with this. Quite like a boat (motor) - certainly don't need lessons to get going with a wheel and a lever, or directing an outboard motor or rudder.
