The ASRS form is _not_ a get-out-of-jail-free card. All it says is
that what you write on the form won't be used against you. If the FAA
finds out the information through some other means other than the
form, you can't say "but I wrote that on the form!" and avoid any
consequences.

At least, that is my reading (and my instructor's reading) of the form:
http://asrs.arc.nasa.gov/forms/PDF_Files/general.pdf
and CFR 91.25.

You need to read more than just the form. As the form notes, the relevant
information can be found in Advisory Circular 00-46D, found he

Pay particular attention to 9(c).
