FAA address change
You just have to love the FAA. My address recently changed from a rural route address to a road address to comply with our new county 911 system. I have an official letter saying that my new address is Cross RD. I entered that into the FAA online address change form and it changed it to Cross ST and said that it had been changed to be compliant with USPS standards. It was the USPS that gave me Cross RD!! Left hand please meet right hand. Well, if they want to call my dirt road a street, more power to them. I just hope the mail carrier doesn't get confused as they do use street addresses in town, but roads in the township... Matt |

In most places, Street and Road are used interchangeably by whoever named the roads so the difference doesn't mean much. It's just important that the entire name is correct. If "Cross Road" is brand new, it is possible that the FAA's edition of their database does not yet have it. You could always try calling them to override their rules. You may have the same trouble with magazine subscriptions for a while too. Been there. |

Use lat/lon, that should be universal.

You may have the same trouble with magazine subscriptions for a while too. Been there. That may well be the case as we just got the notice a few days ago. I just tried to update my address at AOPA and their system also choked on Cross RD and won't even take Cross ST! Maybe I just need to wait a month and try again. Matt |

You must be changing the address in the airman's database, not the aircraft database... I don't think that they have a way to change the aircraft's address electronically though... They support fax and snail mail, but that's about it... That's why mine is not up to date also... I tried sending them an email with a signed PDF file instead of a fax last night... Perhaps that will work also... |
