I know it's COVID-19 and all but I would be surprised if it took longer than 90 days considering it's an AASI and as you mentioned a simple case. Not sure why they would want to drag their feet on this one. There are plenty of complicated cases for them to review longer. I wish you the best and a speedy resolution in FAA speak.
Yeah I honestly don't know. Even last year when covid was full on they were talking 4-8 weeks and now it's stretching out even more. They are saying that about 90% of cases lay in the window of 8-12 weeks. I understand covid slows everything down, but we also spent trillions to compensate for that slowdown. I wonder how long other initial cases are taking.
