What is one of the privileges of a PPL holder in regards to aircraft operation?

A Private Pilot License (PPL) allows the holder to act as pilot in command of an aircraft for private operations. This privilege encompasses flying for personal purposes, such as traveling, conducting non-commercial flights, or participating in recreational activities, as long as no compensation is involved. The holder must still adhere to the regulations set forth by aviation authorities, including maintaining currency and adhering to limitations of the PPL.

Engaging in commercial operation is reserved for those who hold a Commercial Pilot License (CPL), while performing aircraft maintenance requires specific certifications and is not included among the privileges of a pilot. Transmitting on all radio frequencies is also not a privilege of the PPL, as pilots are restricted to specific frequencies related to their flight operations and communication needs. Therefore, the privilege of acting as pilot in command in private operations is the appropriate and accurate identification of what a PPL holder can do.
