Well there's something I hadn't thought of....

Actually, I read that part ("Why they hell do the Alaskans get a break on this?!") and you have to satisfy the night thing within a year (I think) of getting the comm license. Maybe if I trained in Alaska, then moved to Sweden they'd never catch up with me.

Seriously, good advice on going to the FSDO. I've about given up on the medical route. Everybody keeps telling me to take the light gun test and I tell them I did and flunked and they go, "Ohhhhh.....". Oklahoma City included.

The sim thing is a long shot and probably won't work. I agree with you that they probably won't allow it. But I've gotta work any angle I can think of. My best bet is probably to get AOPA on it. But they went all Light Gun on me when I called them so I dropped it.

Oh well, there's always ground instructing. Not that anyone wants to hire a ground instructor.
