Instead of starting a new topic I'll just ask here. I was arrested for a DWI in 2011. Mine was also eventually dismissed but it took several years for that to happen, although I was definitely drunk when I was arrested. In the mean time I decided to get out of flying and get my life back in order. I went to a treatment facility and have been active in AA since. I recently reapplied for a new medical, I thought I could live without flying but I can't. I'm sure many here feel the same. I received a letter requesting all the documentation from the incident and my recovery process. I've sent all of the requested info in.
My question is what are my chances? I've heard to seek out a HIMMS? examiner but there isn't one in my area. How long should I expect to wait and are there any other hoops I should expect to have to jump through?
