Which license is required for international flights?

• A. FCC radio station license
• B. Airworthiness certificate
• C. Pilot license
• D. Medical certificate

Answer: (A)

The license needed to fly internationally is the pilot certificate. This certificate shows you’re trained and authorized to act as pilot in command, which is required for any flight, including international trips. The airworthiness certificate belongs to the aircraft itself, not the pilot. A medical certificate is also required to prove you’re medically fit to fly, but it’s separate from your piloting authorization. The FCC radio license covers operating radio equipment, not the authority to fly. So the pilot certificate is the correct license for international flights.
