steingar Posted January 9, 2019 Report Posted January 9, 2019 I was climbing passes in the Rockies at and above 14K feet, but that was quite a few years ago. Then again, I'm probably in better shape now than I was back then. On the other hand I get wiped out by flying above 10K feet for any length of time. I'm OK, but I don't move so quick when I get out the airplane. I think at 19K feet i'd be unconscious if not stroking out.

Basic process is, FAA says there's a violation, pilot appeals, trial takes place before a single NTSB Administrative Law Judge, full NTSB acts as a Court of Appeals, and then it goes into the federal court system. Thanks, I never realized that. I had imagined that adjudication was with a court-appointed official, I didn't realize the NTSB actually formally participates in that process.
