Does it really matter? As long as you have the certificate in your

my certificate number is also my SS number, I'd be just as happy not to
be in the FAA database! :-)


you can really easy have your SSN removed from your certificate (and get a
random number assigned). And IIRC you can also have your data surpressed
from all these databases.

Thanks, yes, I'm aware of that. I hope to obtain my commercial license
later this year and planned to make the change then. I just wish they
would let us keep our old certificates when new ones are issued.
