If you complain about it on POA, the form is disallowed.

The good news? They're not going to charge me $5 bucks again. The bad news? That's 45 minutes I'll never, ever get back.

How much did you pay them in the first place?

You shouldn't have had to pay more than the initial $5 in the first place.

Even when my first registration bounced back, they never asked me for more money.

I've paid it twice, and was prepared to pay it a third time, but Lindy said there was no need. I wonder what happened to the second check I sent them?

I would be a LOT more impressed with this organization, and the time they are putting into this endeavor, if the fee was, say, $400 to register my plane. At least then, we'd all be getting our money's worth.

As it stands now, Lindy, and a fleet of others, are doing all of this nonsensical paperwork for just $5 bucks, which seems patently absurd. Not that I want to pay more, but I feel kinda guilty, receiving this kind of "entertainment" for such a paltry sum.

My god, Jay. Don't make me go to Google Groups and find what made you so unbearable in rec.aviation.piloting back in the day. It's amazing how you made a problem out of such a minor thing. Good call on not shelling money to seedy LLCs in OK City at least.

Why have we allowed bureaucrats free rein? Why do I ask unanswerable questions?

I know, I know. Keep your head down. Go with the flow. Don't speak up, or look directly at the cameras. Move along, move along......

It is not that we allowed or allow them anything, that was many years ago that we actually had a say in the matter. The more appropriate question is why they allow us so much free rein.

We have made the change from Capitalism to Bureaucratism, the bureaucrats are now in charge. They allow us to scream, *****, and complain, I guess to let us think our voice actually counts so we will feel good, but when the dust settles, we must comply with their every directive, no matter how small or insignificant it might seem to be to us.

With all the economic stimulus money sent to the states, what happened to it? It went into state general funds to keep bureaucrats employed, that is what happened to it. A few crumbs made its way to the private sector, but the bulk of it kept a bureaucrat at his/her desk.

It is now the bureaucracies that count, not us evil Capitalists.

When we go into default, and the communists refuse to loan us any more money, it will be the fault of Capitalism, not Bureaucratism. The bureaucrats will be rioting in the streets because us Capitalists let them down. They won't call it looting, it will be just taking what is theirs.

Can anyone say roughly how long the registration paperwork takes to process? I bought an airplane two months ago and the seller mailed in the forms for both of us. Haven't heard a peep from the FAA and the N-number database still shows the old details.

Who did you buy it from ... Barron Thomas ? :no::no::sad::hairraise:
 
No, the seller was trustworthy enough but neither of us had much experience so maybe we screwed up somewhere. I have an original bill of sale so I guess I'll call the feds and try to get it straightened out.
