here’s what you need to do:
**Student Pilot:** **Private Pilot:**
- DM a member of the *Business Office* on Discord - (and make sure to include your name and WAT Pilot ID); and, - Provide a copy of your *Student License* (block out your mailing address information) – or – for those outside the US, something of an equivalent nature to validate your status. The name on your license **must** be visible and **must** match the name you have on-file with the virtual airline. Your license must be valid and **not** expired. - DM a member of the *Business Office* on Discord (and make sure to include your name and WAT Pilot ID); and, - Provide a copy of your *Pilot License* (block out your mailing address information) to show you hold, at a minimum, a Private Pilot endorsement. The name on your license **must** be visible and **must** match the name you have on-file with the virtual airline. Your license must be valid and **not** expired.

*If you’d rather **not** submit a copy of your license for either designation, that's your decision. However, you can’t obtain the roles in Discord without verifying you're either a Student or Licensed Pilot.*
