Check your State laws. Some States keep your DUI record forever I'm
told.
Other States wash your record out after a period of time, 5 years, 10
years or some such.
If your State gives you a clean record then should not be a problem
with FAA even if they have some rules about multiple DUI's????

I had 2 Dui's (one when I was 21 and one when I was 22) and I'm now
almost 28. I was working on a degree in communications and I'm at
about the junior level, but my old dream of flying just came back to
me all of the sudden and I thought I would make absolutely sure if
those DUI's will be more than just an obstacle for me.
Where I am at now is just trying to figure out how I can be sure one
way or another. How do I get the official thumbs up or down? I can't
bring myself to invest all that money only to be unsure and have to
wait until I get further down the road and committed to find out.
A teacher at the community college I go to now said he wasn't sure
about 2 dui's but he's seen people overcome one. He also gave me the
website
www.jet-jobs.com
for Air Inc, and said they can advise me and
they charge for their services. I thought I'd exhaust all my options
and ask here first/as well.
Any help, advice, or experience is really appreciated. Feel free to
email me!
Thanks,
Jarrod
