Who Knew? The Pope Has A Pilot's License
The retirement of Pope Benedict XVI came as a surprise to Catholics around the world, and his retirement ceremony will likely be full of pomp and circumstance, broadcast live around the world. (www.aero-news.net) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
What's all this bashing having to do with the topic of the Pope having a pilot's license? You're all way off base. It's inappropriate in SO many ways.
Donna, wots inappropriate? The bashing, the license, or both??? The Pope hasn't always been old. A. Pilots license earned early in life is normally valid for that lifetime, at least in the USA. Of course to use it the holder must be "current". I doubt if the Pope has been current for many years because of his age related health, and his job. I am lucky. I am only 80, have no real job, own 3 little airplanes, fly almost daily, and hope to continue until I are at least 100. Vote early and often, as they say in Chicago!!! Jim.
