This letter authorizes you to serve as pilot-in-command of Canadair MK-5 N275K for the purpose of pilot proficiency and exhibition of the aircraft. The following limitations, in addition to those outlined in the operating limitations of the aircraft, will apply:

1. All pilot proficiency operations will be limited to an area within 100 miles of the Metropolitan Oakland International Airport or the Sonoma County Airport, and takeoffs and landings for such operations will be limited to these airports, other than for emergency reasons. If an emergency landing is required at another airport a full written report of the facts and circumstances must be submitted to this office within 48 hours of its occurrence.
2. All flights from the Metropolitan Oakland Airport and the Sonoma County Airport must be approved by their respective airport managers.
3. All flights shall be conducted to avoid areas having heavy air traffic, and when operating in the vicinity of cities, towns, villages and congested areas, conducted in a manner that the aircraft will not create a hazard to persons or property on the ground.

This authorization will expire upon written notification, but in no case later than December 1, 1972.

Sincerely,
