Long story, so I'll try to get right to the point...

Flew in right seat of jet. Jet had hot start resulting in substantial damage. The pilot (operator) in the left seat put me on his FORM 6120 in the list with the other passengers however, next to my name he checked the box "crew" and also checked the box "non-revenue".

I got a call from that pilot who said the NTSB wants me to fill out page 8 of the 6120 Form which is for Crew Members. I told him I'd rather keep my pilot information confidential since it wasn't relevant.

I get an e-mail from the NTSB stating that they "Request" that I fill out page 8 of form 6120 "in accordance with the requirements of 49 U.S.C. Part 830.5 and 830.15" and provide an explanation of what happened. I replied that those requirements were for crewmembers and operators of which I am neither.

I then get a certified mail letter requesting that I present to the FSDO my medical, my commercial certificate and my logbook for inspection according to 14 CFR 61.3(L) & 61.51(a) within 5 days.

Question:

Do they have authority under 61.3(L) & 61.51(a) to demand this inspection given that I am a passenger on a plane who just happens to have a certificate?

If you have any thoughts, please don't hesitate to post them. All input is welcomed.

thnx in advance.
