    • Estimated maximum upload and download speeds: these are the speeds users can expect at certain places of the territory covered, in realistic circumstances. The actual speeds may be lower than the maximum values due to environmental factors (e.g. network saturation, physical obstructions), and subscription and/or mobile device limitations.
    • Advertised upload and download speeds: these are the speeds that can be achieved in realistic circumstances./user conditions.
    • Download volume of the subscription.

    An application form is available. The aeronautical certificate is offered with charge: €7,91 to pay on the account of BIPT: IBAN BE68 6791 7078 1634 (BIC : GEBABEBB).

    Do not forget to sign your form!

    You must enclose:

    • the original copy of the certificate of achievement of the exam, issued by the FPS Mobility and Transport or by the competence centre of the aviation unit;
    • the copy of the proof of the payment of €7,91;
    • a recent passport photograph;
    • a copy of both sides of the identity card.

    Please note that the ATCO (Air Traffic Control) licence does not entitle to the operator’s certificate – it is essential that you provide the certificate of achievement of the FPS examination. If you do not have that certificate anymore, you can ask an equivalent document to the FPS. A copy of your PPL, ATPL... does not entitle to the operator’s licence. The ELP is not sufficient either.
