    DUI questions

    If there was no action (i.e. suspension) on the airman's driver's license prior to the conviction, the 60 day report clock did not start until the conviction occurred. This has already been stated. 0.15 BAC plus or minus anything will be viewed as 0.15 BAC in the eyes of the FAA........ bet...

    Advice on HIMS Program

    You have made this statement about DSM V multiple times. Are you aware that the FAA uses DSM IV? I'm guessing you are aware, and if so, have you looked up whether you meet the standards for dependence according to DSM IV?

    I know you folks want another DUI question, and I'm gonna help you out...

    The fact that you no longer drink should not be underestimated in how much this may help you. The FAA will certainly require documentation of this in the form of testing for some length of time. A refusal does not necessarily put you in the dependence category; it can result in an "abuse"...

    DUI Question - I Searched

    Gather all of your info, take it to a consult and meet with the AME. The AME should be familiar with the decision tree posted above, and it does not have to be a HIMS AME. Do not give them your MedExpress applicaton number, as that is the trigger for starting the medical exam and a required...

    Looking for HIMS Psychiatrists for Eval Under $2k

    Your HIMS doc is your best resource. I had a certified counselor conduct an evaluation prior to eventually needing a CogScreen with a PhD dude accompanied by a HIMS Psychiatric eval. My HIMS doc recommended all 3 of these people at the time that they were needed. The counselor was much much...

    Can the FAA deny a medical that has expired?

    I'm no expert and reserve the right to edit/remove this post later, but here goes............. The FAA does not deny medical certificates; they revoke them. And they cannot revoke an expired medical certificate. The FAA can (and does), however, deny medical applications. Those do not expire...

    Malibu down - Yoakum TX (T85) - 1-17-23 - 4 fatal

    I was actually thinking more along the lines that so little fuel was onboard that a pitch up was enough to starve the turbine. But the preliminary report should have some pretty solid info on what the case was for fuel quantity.

    Malibu down - Yoakum TX (T85) - 1-17-23 - 4 fatal

    I heard about 4th hand from the surviving passenger another detail about this crash. It was obvious from the account I heard that several terms were probably misheard and repeated, but the one thing that stuck out was this: The pitch up was quickly followed by the engine quitting. Sure seems...

    Optimal Aviation - Cogscreen Training designed for Special Issuance - $500

    This. That line about 4 out of 10 not passing is bullcrap. I never trust anyone who creates stats in their favor to make sales and refuses to properly reduce fractions.

    Sport and DUI

    Maybe. Maybe not. If you were at BAC 0.20, you better thank your lucky stars you didn't blow. If you were at BAC 0.09, you caused yourself a bigger headache with the FAA should you decide to move forward.

    I'm not a longtime POA member, but I am on other forums. And there's always this guy who likes to stir $#(% up. Whoever that guy is on POA probably created this guest username Joey because he got bored.
