I see no issues with this. Even an individual should be able to secure such approval for his personal use.

@Laraba38468817

There is no problem at all. Everyone is free to apply and if the regulatory authorities are satisfied that the conditions are met, the licence must be issued.

@YakubuIshaya001

Ya! But in aviation, there are regulations/criteria to meet up with... I believe that the approval is within the NCAA Guidelines and ICAO best Global standard proc./pract. It is so when Politics creeps in but as far as any organisation meetups with the criteria and has the capacity.

@SalahudeenIshaq

That's just the truth.

My fellow Christians will call it Islamization when Alfas and the (real practice) traditional worshipers start getting theirs.
