That would be it for me. Lost the medical years ago. That's the reason I
became a consultant :-)



I lost my medical back in 1990 and at some point after that disappeared from the
registry, despite the old saw about being licensed for life. When I got my
medical back last month, I miraculously reappeared in the registry.

Being in a computer database doesn't make you a pilot! :-)

Fifteen years ago I was a pilot, and now I are one again. G

Congratulations!

Actually, my curiosity has been piqued by all this nonsense being thrown
out here about not being on a data base. I've given the numbers back channel
to a select few friends on the group to research and see if they can find
out the exact reason why someone.....anyone...would appear or not appear on
the data bases.

It will be interesting to know, but I'm guessing the intent is to have
only "active" pilots listed, i.e., those with current medicals. I know
that they only send the safety seminar information to those with active
medicals. I let mine lapse due to being too busy to fly a few years
ago, and I stopped getting the notices. When I inquired as to why, I
was told that they sent those only to people with current medicals.
Sure enough, I took my physical and they resumed again.

Pete, You struck the nail on the head I have better things to do with my
time.


Wow .. even better than talking to your flying buddies here? I don't
know what to say .. I don't do rejection well.

I guess Otis' call to his friend the FSDO inspector resulted in an
investigation, huh? Oh well...


Gee thanks. Blame it on me. I was just kidding. I didn't tattle.

Dudley ..

Why do you waste your time on a Usenet troll? This kid's probably about
14 and using daddy's computer to jerk people around when he should
be doing his jr high homework.

I think he should put up or shut up and deposit his 10 grand instead of
running his mouth off. Unless he's too chicken **** to back up his
loose mouth. Anyone who's been around a few years with
even a remote knowledge of aviation knows who you are.

Well Steven .. I think it's a dumb thing to do and show's poor
judgement [sic]. I noticed you took the video off the web site.
Fortunately not before I got the copy to email
to a friend of mine who's a FSDO Ops inspector.

It was a natural assumption.

I thought you left.

I scrapped that x-country flight due to weather I will attempt it again in
the near future.

I know you are what you say you are, but who is or isn't in the
database? You retired before a cutoff? When was that? My father and
uncle are in the database, and both quit flying in the 1950's or early
60's, and my father died in 1976. I'm not challenging you, just curious
how the database is made up. I always thought all pilots were listed
unless they chose to opt out.

During the campaign there was a lot of hoo-hah about the president's
flying, so I looked him up in the FAA database. As I recall, he had a
single and twin certificate, but no current medical, and his address
was: unknown! I believe he last flew in the early 1970s.

However, this is the government, after all. It has been known to make
the occasional mistake.

I looked up the database yesterday, and it wasn't working at the time.
(Hey, it's the government!) But the introductory pages noted that
anyone who wanted could block his entry from being displayed.



-- all the best, Dan Ford

And what did the introductory pages say about pilots who have never asked to
be included OR excluded from any FAA data base; who can physically sit in
their dens in 2005 holding their certificates in their right hand?

Unfortunately this isn't true. I know exactly who this person is and where
he is and he's not a troll. He's an
unbalanced individual who has contacted me several times by
personal email seeking to fly a P51. The tone of his correspondence was such
that my wife became concerned enough that the situation has been turned over
at this point to a third party for investigation.
Thank you for your interest.
