I wish a law like that would be enacted too. I want somebody squeaky clean sharing my flight deck or flying my family around.

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.

From: Square root of the variance and average of the variation
PRIA records are still held by airlines. Airmen records are supposedly being digitized in OKC.
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.

No conjecture on my part. One of my contacts is a current, sitting NTSB board member. Also have the advantage of editors and fact checkers when publishing an article. Everything I've said is truthful. But 6 weeks of searching government docs, congressional proceedings, and the federal register will do that.

This is actually true. Bad PRIA does not legally preclude hiring. The purpose is to assist with the decision.
