REFLECTOR: ARROW

[Patrick Horvath]

Hey John - 

That is correct.  The acronym is now AROW.  No radio license unless international. 

Ref: http://wireless.fcc.gov/services/index.htm?job=service_home&id=aircraft_stations

"On October 25, 1996, the FCC released a Report and Order in WT Docket No. 96-82 (text) eliminating the individual licensing requirement for all aircraft, including scheduled air carriers, air taxis and general aviation aircraft operating domestically. This means that you do not need a license to operate a two-way VHF radio, radar, or emergency locator transmitter (ELT) aboard aircraft operating domestically. All other aircraft radio stations must be licensed by the FCC either individually or by fleet."
