That's alcohol abuse. Be sure to check yourself into the DAPA's beer fridge tomorrow.

--The American application asks if I've "ever been removed from flight status, voluntarily or involuntarily...." --

A Q-3, whether commander-directed or earned on a checkride, is NOT "removed from flight status".

An FEB resulting in losing your wings would be "removed from flight status".

Now that I re-read that and have looked at it on AA's PilotCredentials, I would have to agree. A Q3 (correct me if I am wrong, USAF guys) is the same as a failed NATOPS checkride or ground evaluation in the Navy. You were still in a flying status. I agree with the above that it should be addressed in the failed checkride question.

Yes, you simply cannot fly "unsupervised"...

Does this count? Thanks.
Best thing you can do is own it and turn it into a positive learning experience.

I have a friend that landed a U-28 gear up and still managed to get hired at United.

I was grounded once for not paying my snacko bill.

I didn't bring it up, but on second thought, if I had, it might have helped the interview.
