Most people have one or more on record unless they went to all in house, had good examiners or were just amazing students.

PRIA doesnt mean much....all it says is a carrier has to request the records from a previous company. They do not have to receive the records or even open the envelope or if even pay attention to the record if they do open the envelope.

For a government agency to undertake a massive IT effort such as scanning millions of documents or setting up a massive database (like a centralized PRIA database), funding is required. Manpower is required.
The FAA operates on a shoestring budget with a minimal staff that is constantly fluctuating with every reauthorization act/administration. After repeated series of Republican budget cuts at the Federal level over the last decade, it shouldn't surprise anyone that things are still stored on microfilm in OKC.
