Since this page seems to be about a legal concept common to many jurisdictions, I think that should be made clear in the first sentence somehow. Also I don't think the sentence, "The PIC must be legally certified to operate the aircraft for the specific flight and flight conditions, but need not be actually manipulating the controls at any given moment." is strictly true. There are times the PIC needs no certification, for example, PICs of ultralight aircraft in the United States need none. 67.160.147.2 (talk) 19:27, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
