Ive had some bad information come from the local FSDO, from which I've learned to do my research before i go in and get told i cant get my TYPE rating for an S70, when the FARs clearly state that your military competency exam gets you your commercial-instrument and type rating, if applicable.

once again it comes down to interpretation i guess... but unless i have paperwork to give to the FAA I avoid the FSDO like the plague. I guess my next step is to call around to the regionals and ask if I even qualify.
