The public safety requiring, and the advantages of uniform  regulation making it desirable, in the interest of aeronautical progress, that a person engaging within this State in operating aircraft, in any form of aerial navigation for which a license to operate aircraft issued by the United States government would then be required if such aerial navigation were interstate, should have the qualifications necessary for obtaining and holding such a license, it  shall be unlawful for any person to engage in operating aircraft within the State, in any such form of aerial navigation, unless he have such federal license.
