My glider N199AK supposedly landed at Johnstown, PA airport last
year..........I have the Port Authority bill sent to me to pay for the landing fee. My question is: can I use this bill as proof that I flew there from Washington State? And if so, I believe that may make my flight one of the longest sailplane flights in North America.............and all for $25.00! Brad |

Brad I'm sure there is something in the Sporting Code that will support the claim ![]() Probably not as the paper declaration and the electronic declaration do not agree. Also, you have your registration number on your paper declaration but only your competition number on your electronic declaration. And your official observer has claimed he has at least a silver badge but there are no records of such with the SSA. Your parachute was out of date and you did not have a two year certification on your transponder. The FAA has advised us that the flight in question was not listed on your program letter on file with the local FSDO and you nipped some airspace during your flight (although you had permission via two way communication). For the above reasons your world record setting flight has been determined to not be valid and therefore did not exist. |
