Planning a little trip this afternoon to the FAA (big scary aviation regulators in America) this afternoon. They read over my license and stuff which I faxed them from Japan, and it seems they have realised that I am not a terrorist. They sent me a nice letter the other day to this effect, so I phoned and made an appointment to collect my American pilots license from them this afternoon.
The flying I did last week was technically without a license, but this is OK because Johntheflyinginstructor was in charge (on paper). If anyone would have asked, I could have been a new student pilot. But anyway, once I get this shiny new american license, I will be able to fly the plane solo or with passengers. This is a good thing.
I do hope it is a bit of paper A6 size or smaller.. then I can slide it into my license book alongside the Australian license and the New Zealand license... (I should start collecting these...)

I thought of that... but Japan doesnt offer Private licenses. I would have had to get a Commercial one. Too expensive.
