Cessna Over DC -- NASA Form?

Read 9 (c) (2) on your link. I would say that violating the airspace
constituted a lack of competency.

Almost anything a pilot may report on the ASRS form can constitute a
lack of competency though.

If they file a NASA form, will it save their tickets?


According to the ASRS immunity policy
(http://asrs.arc.nasa.gov/immunity_nf.htm), if they file ASRS forms in a
timely manner, and if their violation was inadvertent, and if they haven't
been found to have committed another FAR violation within the past five
years, then no civil penalty or certificate suspension can be imposed. (I
doubt that a student pilot flying with his CFI could be found to have
violated the FARs by getting lost, in any event.)

There is nothing that's going to stop them from at least a 30 day
suspension. There is NO way around this in the DC airspace
viloations (most of which don't cause the "sky is falling"
evacuation that attract news coverage).

See my reply to your same point elsewhere in this thread.
