One of my good friends from college is now awaiting trial for vehicular manslaughter charges after crashing his car and killing his best friend in the passenger seat on the way home from a bar. His BAC was 0.23. He was a cop and definitely should have known better. Now his career is over, he's...

Makes sense

He admits in his post that he actually did commit DUI, which one could argue that is in itself an abuse of alcohol making the correct answer to 18.o. "Yes".

Probably SR22 or DA62. I'd love to fly a turbine but I couldn't afford the gas for very long.

Seriously! 2 minor injuries and 1 uninjured. That's incredible.

I bet the PAX were really not happy that day, especially the nervous flyers...

I did almost all my primary training with a CFII, but he happened to be sick for a week so he had me fly with a regular CFI. Of course that was the week I did most of the hood work. Oh well...

Anyone can take the course. You don't fill out the form with your personal info until after you completed the course and passed the quiz.

Except the Bahamas.

I had my BasicMed exam last April to avoid the annual SI renewal. It was part of by annual physical with my PCP and only required a couple extra tests. I've been flying with it all summer and the restrictions have been a non-issue for me. I guess I may have flown to Canada one day if I could...

I think it would depend on how solid your proof is. If they have to do some digging then it might take time. If you have solid proof then they might issue an emergency suspension very quickly.
