I'm a bit confused on just brushing it aside.
Also an update, the school has decided that they will come forward if he doesn't. It could be their 141 ticket when the Feds find out
Of course I'm not suggesting forging a logbook, that would completely invalidate the entire NASA/ASAP immunity protection. By handling it "in-house" I meant that not everything needs to be reported to the Feds, including the flight school needing to report it. But now if the 141 school says that they are going to self disclose if he doesn't, that is a big time game changer. I still stand by original advice though, only fill out the NASA/ASAP form and leave it at that. The FAA will view that as "compliance" and "self-disclosure". Let the 141 school disclose it to the FAA. They have many more resources (legal departement, etc.) and will know how to disclose it to the FAA in the least incriminating way as possible. It's all about CYA and liability at this point, and trust me, your school has a major vested interest in this.
