So you have a private pilots license:

couldn't guess what I mean?
Yes, it's commonly used for trips just like this one from La Paz,
only this one made customs in San Diego, rather than flying under the
radar for a touch and go.

As another pilot who keeps up with this kind of thing and reads plenty
of flying related printed matter, I've never seen the term "pirate"
airplane either. Must be a non-pilot term.

I'm not a pilot, never liked flying, as I spent many hours flying
with both my parents some at the controls as parents often let their
kids, out of Del Mar, Dad:
http://www.----------.com/loupilotslicense.jpg and Mom:
http://www.----------.com/bethpilotlicense.jpg And their friends in
their private planes, which of course, is what their licenses say they
have.

I think Bill is trying to say that 'pirate' was a typo and he meant
'private'.
