&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==Need for the Document==&lt;br /&gt;
*A recreational pilot license (RPL) is a flight crew license introduced. It authorizes pilots to fly light, single-engine aircraft as the pilot-in-command or co-pilot.&lt;br /&gt;
*The recreational pilot certificate requires fewer training hours than the private certificate and can be earned in as few as 30 hours as compared to the 40 hours needed for the private.&lt;br /&gt;
*The reasoning behind this is that as a recreational pilot you receive fewer hours of cross-country navigation training because you must remain within 50 nautical miles of your home base.&lt;br /&gt;
*The RPL replaces the student pilot license and general flying progress test (GFPT) that existed under the Ethiopian Civil Aviation Authority If you have an RPL you can fly without supervision from a flight instructor or flying school.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
