Airplane Commercial Pilot Certification in the USA

A Federal Aviation Administration Part 141/61 Program
The commercial pilot certificate permits the holder to act as pilot in command of an airplane carrying passengers or other property while being paid for services as pilot or required crew member. A commercial pilot may engage in such operations as charter, air taxi, aircraft ferry or delivery, agricultural applications, corporate/airline pilot and instructing (with appropriate additional instructor certificates).
