I know this is quite random and i'm sorry if this has been asked before but what is the age restriction for flying a speeder or starfighter. Is there a legal age that citizens can take a sort of permit test to fly in the military? Steves490 05:59, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
- Many young people knew how to fly air transports and starships. Whether it was legal is a different matter. SoresuMakashi(Everything I tell you is a lie) 06:02, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
- This isn't a bad question. I might be completely making this up, but I kind of remember somewhere stating that Luke Skywalker obtained a driving license of sorts to pilot his landspeeder on Tatooine at a certain age. Toprawa and Ralltiir 06:17, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

- I'm fairly sure it varies based on the local governments. -LtNOWIS 10:13, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

- Platt's Smugglers Guide says that you ordinarily need ten years of space experience before getting a captain's license (though most smugglers get a fake license or pay a "expediter fee" to waive a lot of the requirements), but doesn't say anything about a minimum age. —Silly Dan (talk) 18:04, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
