Thread: Can a commercial airline pilot fly his own private plane when off duty.? - Yahoo! Answers

Yes. Happens all the time

Yes they can. My Grandfather was a pilot for both Delta and TWA and he had his own private plane that he flew all the time.

Of course. Why not?

Of course, why not? There's no law you know.....

yeah, duhhhhh!!

yes

I do.

Sure. They can even fly a glider or sailplane when off duty if they have the appropriate category and class license.

Yep. NASCAR drivers drive their own cars too when "off duty"

Absolutely, and quite a few pilots do it, if they can afford it and when their work schedule permits. Most airline pilots love to fly, so flying their own plane on their time off is just that much more fun.
