Light Passenger Flyer (Civilian Aircraft)

This vehicle can be built from readily available standard data packages, and is assembled locally on innumerable TL9 planets under a variety of tradenames, usually associated with the concept of speed. It is intended for rapid transportation of people, and has a very limited cargo capacity in order to keep the weight down (and the speed up.) Because the controls and sensors are simple, and no capability for remote automatic handling by a traffic network is included, most planets and governments require some sort of pilot's license before allowing operation of this class of vehicle.
