    regardless of fuel condition...pilot appears to have stall/spun into trees (according to witness and chordwise crushing)rather than accept gradual descent into trees with a chance that most energy would be depleted by airframe components striking trees one at a time.Not a great choice i realize ,but if he couldnt find an open field to put down on ,anything is better than a stall spin

    oh just a follow up....guy from my local FSDO called late friday afternoon.....i said I hadnt heard back from you after a week and a half of emails/phone messages so I called Oklahoma City and got the extension I needed.He than apologized for taking so long to return message and asked if I had by any chance complained to Oklahoma city?

    that is approaching moderate to severe in my book....

    thanks for this suggestion...waited on hold for 10 min.,explained the problem,agent basically granted a 60 day extension of old cert till they work out issues with new cert.They emailed an authorization in 2 min...problem solved ..thanks all...k

    Cliffy..i tend to agree with you...but will the FAA inspector/ntsb/insurance co agree ,if god for bid im having a bad day...the real problem ,is so far none of the FSDO offices i have left emails and phone messages with ,have bothered to respond....they are ones impowered to grant an extension....

    the only quicky rating i could possibly do in less than 2 weeks is powered parachute or maybe pvt gyro ad on.This all started from my ballooning cert!!Which was just doing as a lark..
  15. thinwing
    i keep checking daily on FAA web site and it still shows old license
  16. thinwing
    no hard copy of PPL...examiner took that...ive got a call out to insurence co to see if Im covered with an expire temp cert...honestly I never dreamed it would take 4 months to issus new one
  17. thinwing
    it does just that....but the temp lists the date of "superceded"pvt cert..and yes the DPE punchs a whole and asked if he could keep old plastic cert for his collection.

    Brian ..that is exactly the situation ,and why I am cncerned if there were an incident or accident....my UAS cert is good though...
  19. thinwing
    well ,as i read my policy,with an expired pilot cert...insurance null in case of accident ,not even counting on NTSB response
  20. thinwing

    I have a temp commercial certificate issued 08/31 and expiring 12/31....thats a couple of weeks away...Ive tried leaving two messages with my local flight standards for an extension...so far a week later...crickets...talked to the issuing DPE...he said try riverside flight standards because they kicked the new cert back 3 weeks after initial issue for some technical reason.So ,i emailed Riverside..and again no response.So while i am flying 12/30 thru jan 4th...i will have an expired temp cert.What to do????Advice please
  24. thinwing
    The obvious unintended consequence is the airman dependent on his class 1 or 2 cert who thinks he has covid ,will tough it out,NOT recieve professional treatment that would be reportable to FAA aeromedical...and hone care only and hope for the best...
