AirEconomy build 111: pilot licences (collection only for now)
💬 0 replies
Build 111 introduces pilot licences. For now they are only collected — nothing is blocked.
Licences
- PPL covers everything under 5,700 kg without jet engines (C152, C172, C208…). That always stays open.
- CPL is for aircraft from 5,700 kg and business jets under 20 t.
- ATPL is for jet airliners and large business jets (GLF5, GL7T). Aircraft from 20 t also need a type check.
- AI crews, firefighting and humanitarian missions need no licence.
How you get them
- Criteria complete themselves from tracker data: a night landing, a soft landing, a navigation flight of at least 100 nm (small airport to small airport works), and for ATPL a check flight in a jet and a crosswind landing in real weather.
- Plus account age and the number of days you flew. CPL and ATPL are free.
- Pilot Passport (My licences) shows what you have, what you are missing and what each licence opens.
Transition
- Whoever already flew large aircraft themselves inherits the licence.
- Right now criteria are only collected. We will announce in advance when licences become required.
Everything is in the help and in a new handbook chapter.
