He can't be certified if he is a marijuana user (no matter what excuse he invents). He can try again in two years. He will have to repeat the neuropsych. He was required to have disclosed that use on his application, so if they let him get this far either he lied or his AME is incompetent.

When I ask about me it makes me sound much better than I actually am: Ron Natalie is a notable figure in the world of computer networking and software engineering. He has been involved in various significant projects throughout his career. Notably, he was one of the key developers of the BSD...

Margy wanted me to replace all our exterior flood lights with Ring spotlight cams. The ones on the hangar in particular are 25' up in the air over irregular ground. I rented a boom lift. Made easy work out of the job.

NyetJets again?

The problem is proving it to the level of a criminal conviction. First off, the NTSB conclusions aren't evidence and even much of the data they collected is barred from being used. Of course, if the Winnebago DA wanted to pursue it he could reinterview the witnesses, etc...

And the FAA is unconcerned about guilt or innocence here. They want to know if the expunged, deferred, rescinded, or whatever event was the result of undoing an operating while intoxicated event to trigger their investigation. The legal status is irrelevant. In some states you can bury a...

It was also in the report, and this was told me the day this event happened, that the pilot in question was told to STOP doing these 360 spirals the day before.

You don't get EFCs if there's no clearance limit. A proceed direct or vector isn't a new clearance limit. It's merely a transient change to your route.

You have to report it. Obtain the records that show why it was suspended. A non-DUI related offense will not amount to much of an impediment.

This thread has devolved into political squabbling and lost what little aviation content there was.

Several injuries not life-threatening according to this: https://7news.com.au/news/world/airport-worker-falls-from-transnusa-plane-onto-tarmac-in-indonesia-after-steps-moved-c-14703046

The biggest question is whether you want to deal with all the tire kickers and whatever yourself or not.

Hell, I was flying into DCA on AA, and we had our approach canceled twice. I got kind of tired of seeing 2W5 go by my window.

I grabbed a handful of different LED worklights from Lowe's a while back. One has a rechargeable battery which is handy at times. I've got a smaller battery operated one I use when I'm upside down under the instrument panel, etc...

File what you want. Fly what you get. Log what you need. My first instrument XC work, I file, everything regurgitates fine. Call for clearance. They give me a completely different route. Fine, put that into the GPS. Take off, call approach. "We have a new route for you." Oh fun...

I have a neat little Opinel Folder I keep in the pencil jar on my desk that I use more often than anything else. My kicking around the hangar knife is a cheapo buckknife w/box cutter blade combo that came from Lowes or something. One of the more unusual knives I have is a folding chef's...

We built this home with the understanding that we may end up not flying at some point before we die. My wife having been a special education teacher specializing in rather profound physical disabilities designed a house that put most of the important stuff on the main floor. Our front door...

We don't have gas here either, but I've never really found it to be an issue. The closest fuel is only 4NM away. I usually go 19NM for a little better deal. If I'm heading out on a longer trip there are some fields with substantially cheaper fuel in various directions I might be heading...

Did I ask you to? Since when was griping about the FAA against the ROC here? We'd have to delete half the posts in the medical forum if it were.
