Concur. Over my mil career I could always shop around FSDOs and find someone mil friendly who could make things happen that another shop interpreted differently. On my last trip to PHL office the airman there saw my C-141 time 12 years ago and told me to bring the paperwork next time and he would add the L-100 type rating. I had to call 4 or 5 FSDOs to get someone to do my Lear type rating without paying for V1 cuts or doing a checkride in a civilian jet when I did my ATP and CFI.
