    Looking forward to hearing how it works out. Good luck!

    Alright better pilots than me... What was he saying?

    Oh, I thought it was "durable medical equipment." He was asking if you needed a walker when you landed.

    Right. 61.15 is clearly aimed at motor vehicle involvement. The FAQ, if that's what it is, seems more focused on 67, which talks about substances (including alcohol). If Part 67 mentions admin actions, though, I haven't found it yet. Nor is it on the 8500-8 (which covers admin actions...

    Twin Cessna Crash in AR

    It looks to my untrained eye like a fateful combination of engine out, insufficient altitude and airspeed to recover. I'm too green to guess whether the wind was helping, hurting, or irrelevant. Was this "the impossible turn?" My heartfelt respects to the deceased, God rest his soul, and...

    Arrest for the first time...

    Midlife, you've quoted the same passage I cited earlier (that references vague "administrative actions" with a blanket wave at parts 61 and 67 in globo) that gave me pause. I think it came from an FAQ. Have you run across a pertinent definition of "administrative actions?" I haven't found one...

    Yes, indeed, @timwinters! The stuff we ask our soldiers to deal with nowadays, and then we expect them to reintegrate into "polite" society seamlessly? It's a tall order. One minute they're commanding multi-zillion dollar equipment and platoons of men to eliminate bad guys who look just like...

    Yes, I was thinking about that too. Community parenting. You put it well. Parents, teachers, police, pastors, making kids take responsibility for their stupid human tricks. Mow lawns all summer to earn money to pay for the window you broke. Of course, when I was a kid, youthful screw-ups...

    Arrest for the first time...

    No doubt I had less fun than TW! Your sympathy is appreciated. :-D When I was doing the obligatory stupid kid stuff many moons ago, there was no internet, very few security cameras recording stuff, nobody running around with cell phones uploading videos to the web, no bodycams on the police...

    I don't mean to give offense, and I'm not trying to rattle a saber. I agree there's no virtue or nobility in self-disclosure that's not required. I simply caution the OP not to make false statements in contravention of the cited reg., certainly not by commission, nor even by material omission...

    See, however, 18 CFR 1001.

    Arrest for the first time...

    In post 37, the OP is, I think, citing an FAA FAQ answer. It references parts 61 and 67 generally (not much help) and suggests notification is required for "administrative actions," even those not resulting in a conviction. I haven't found an FAA-centric definition of "administrative actions"...

    Thanks! Good to know. I'm a fan of redundancies.

    Yes, it's Sunday, but if your hearing is in 9 days, you have no time to waste. Many small law practices have a website and an email address. Compose an email that you can send out to several law firms, stating your issues. You have two problems, and they might best be handled by different...

    Good to know. I'm going to see if I can wrap up the written before the change, while I have a little momentum.

    PPL Written test prep

    Exncsurfer, do you recall where you heard this? I'm preparing for the written now. I've done King, and I'm working through a few books, shooting for a real understanding of the principles rather than just cramming to hit 70%+. If they're going for variations on a theme, I'll be fine, but if...

    Lost comms question.

    Dumb newbie questions: how often do comms go out? How many people carry handheld as backup? P.S. @ Bob Gardner: I'm really enjoying your books.
