They're from the FAA and they're here to help. They wouldn't be allowed to say it if it weren't true.

What could go wrong?

The fact that you've been sent a letter of investigation, and it's the first step in the enforcement process, is a just a coincidence, right?

Why would the FAA want to take enforcement action for a honest mistake? I correctly reported the arrest, and the conviction which came months after.. well that paper may have been lost in the mounds of paperwork I had to file for my medical. I wasn’t trying to hide anything and I’ve been more than honest and transparent throughout this 8 month process.

It’s extremely frustrating to say the least, and why most airman highly criticize the agency.

LOI’s are normally “dismissed” with no further action when an airman or their attorney provides objective and credible evidence that disproves the alleged violation.

Per “Pilot’s Bill of Rights”, you have the right to receive copies of all information that the FAA is relying on to generate this allegation. You or your attorney should ask FAA for all the records as you have every right to have them.

Also, if you have not yet done so, recommend you request a copy of your complete Driving record from the NDR. Hang in there!

Thanks. I have all my driving records as I had to send them to the FAA for the DUI. I resent all info.
