I kept waiting for my certificate in the mail. My daughter (CFI in
another state) told me to keep watching the airman registry and said
once that reflects your new rating, your updated certificate arrives
within a week in the mail. Not sure where she got that info, but it was
right on the money twice. Seems they update the database and snail mail
the certificate at the same time, or thereabout (really close to the 120
days).

Doesn't it say the date they're processing certificates from on the
page somewhere? If your temp was issued before the processing date
and your status in the database hasn't changed, I'd consider tactfully
asking the DE about the paperwork and the FSDO about an extension.

This is what it says on the FAA website....

We are currently processing permanent Airmen Certificates for temporary
certificates that were issued approximately October 31, 2005

so if you took your PPL checkride a month ago...say 12/10/05, you still have
about another month+ before you get your permanent certificate.

keep checking the site and when it gets near your checkride date you will
know your certificate is just around the corner.



here is the link to that page....

When is the airmen registry updated? Is it updated when they get around
to updating a particular persons record, or is it done as a whole on a
particular basis. The reason I ask is because I have been checking every
day to see when they add on my PPL. However I noticed at the bottom of
the screen that is says Last Updated: Tuesday 13 September, 2005. That
appears on every page within the registry. Is that referring to the
information contained within the registry, or is that the last time the
updated the way the website looks?

The FAA does not acknowledge a change of address unless you
request a new certificate and pay the $2 fee.

My address is updated in the database, even though all of my
certificates have different addresses. I never got new certs and never
paid the fee...

They don't care about the address on paper/plastic in your
wallet. They need a current mailing address so they can
contact you. If you want a new certificate you must pay the
$2 per certificate. [Hint---If your certificate has your
SSN on it, you can request that the purge their files and
they will issue new certificates at no charge w/o the SSN]

You can also request your information not be available to the public without
a waiver.

Yeah, I'm heading into FSDO next week to renew my CFI, get my IGI, and
get my SSN taken off all my certifcates. Going to make them work at this...

Congratulations, Ask about the Gold Seal program when you
renew.
