Question

What is the difference between a Commercial Pilot License and a Private Pilot license?

Answer 1

A Commercial pilot can charge people to fly and/or get a job as a paid pilot. it takes more training than a for a private pilot's licence.

Answer 2

Yeah, a lot more training, and the rules are probably more strict cause you have other peoples' lives in your hands.  Like the difference between your regular car license, and driving a school bus.

Answer 3

You can be paid to fly with the commercial license, and you're required to have more experience.

Basically the practical test requires the same maneuvers to a higher tolerance, with the addition of a few mildly aerobatic maneuvers.
