The REAL ID act specifies that a compliant ID is required for official purposes, in the act that is defined as : ``Official purpose'' is defined under Sec. 201 of the Act to include access to Federal facilities, boarding Federally-regulated commercial aircraft, entry into nuclear power plants...

Most airports owned by a city are operated as an enterprise fund. Money that is made at the airport can only be spent on the airport, it does not go into the general revenue fund for the city to spend however it wants...

The only reason I would start my mower that early would be because my neighbor had been out making noise until late at night. Although I can usually find something to make more noise than the mower. My neighbor drunkenly decided that the best time to shoot off his remaining fireworks was between...

That is the non-movement area. It tells you that at the bottom right.

Just last year the FAA made it clear that onboard (handheld) devices were acceptable. https://www.faa.gov/other_visit/aviation_industry/airline_operators/airline_safety/info/all_infos/media/2017/InFO17003.pdf Maybe the “older” instructor is more up to date on current FAA policy than some POA...

23.149 hasn’t existed since August 30th of last year. If it’s in your FARs book then it’s time to buy a new one. And hopefully your MEI is also aware of that.

If they are going to lie in their logbook why would they log fake approaches in a sim? If I was going to falsify time in my logbook I would log that I flew approaches in my plane with a safety pilot even though the plane never left the hangar. If I’m falsifying documents to get currency why...

I don’t see a similar link on the North Texas FSDO page. Orlando might be unique in how they handle setting up initial CFI checkrides.

The Orlando FSDO has you fill out a form online requesting an initial CFI checkride. They then assign a DPE to do your checkride. That takes two weeks and they send you an email telling you which DPE has been assigned. Then you contact the DPE and schedule the checkride with him. Depending on...
