Now for the other part- FAA completes Form 8020-23 for accidents. PIC's name will be listed. These forms are a permanent record in the airman's file. It is possible that the student's name will also be listed, but only as an occupant. The OP might want to make a FOIA request to get a copy of the accident report, particularly to see if his name is listed therein.
Thank You!

Hi guys,
We ( me and my instructor ) had an incident, gear up landing. It was my second flight in Arrow, working on complex aircraft endorsement. The circumstances were a bit unusual, everything happened too fast, plus the gear warning horn didn't work after full flaps extended, so we're overlooked the three greens and landed gear up. FAA visited the school and interviewed only my instructor and told him to do 907 ride and his record is going show this incident for 5 years. They never talked to me. Chief pilot called and asked me how many hours I have in type, last 90 days and last year. My question is how it will affect my record?
Thank you!

You're going to be asked if you've ever been involved in an accident or incident. For the remainder of your career, the answer to that question is "yes."
When given the chance to explain, it shouldn't be a problem. The difficulty arises when you're asked that during the application process, and that ends the process for you.
When you are asked about it, make sure you can give a thorough, detailed account, and whatever you do, don't try to pass it off on the instructor. Paint it as a learning experience (as it will be), and move on.

-23 forms do not go in airman files, so you won't see anything. When a company makes a pria request to the FAA, the accident/incident will show on the PICs record, but yours should not show anything. The FAA knows you were there, but that information is not used for anything. It's always a great idea to get a copy of your pilot records though.

If what is being FOIAed is your pilot record, probably not, because like I said, -23s don't go into your airman record files kept by OKC. Get your records to be sure of course.

I definitely will. What's the way of obtaining the pilot records? Mail request to the FAA or visit local FSDO?
