FAA MANDATES PLASTIC PILOT CERTIFICATE

Still hanging onto your paper pilot certificate? You'll need to upgrade to a
plastic pilot certificate by March 31, 2010. The FAA released its final rule
Feb. 28 ( http://www.aopa.org/epilot/redir.cfm?adid=14613 ), announcing the
required switch to the certificate it deems is more counterfeit resistant.

When the FAA proposed this mandate in 2005, AOPA members overwhelmingly
supported the move to a more secure certificate. If you are attached to your
paper certificate and original issuance date (the plastic certificate will
have a new one), don't worry. You can keep your paper certificate for
nostalgia; you just can't use it to fly. Read more on AOPA Online
