how old you have to be to get a pilot license?

Answer 1

The sky's the limit! One of yesterday's tv programs had an African-American movie star who was telling EXTRA MC that his 10 year old son was taking flying lessons
in Los Angeles, California. I also remember about an 8 year old girl, a few years ago
who took lessons. Every State makes its own ruling on this matter. Last year, a New York attorney tried to change New York law so that people under 17 could not get a pilot's license or fly. He based it on the fact that a 15 year old pilot committed suicide,
Kami-Kazi style.

Answer 2

you can get your student pilot license at 16
the real ticket at 18
