That is not the same as a suspension, in which case pilot privileges are suspended for a period of time. A revocation is a complete loss of certification. It can't be reinstated or renewed. A new pilot certificate must be earned again.
The pilot's record does not go away.

I vaguely remember quite a few years ago a Captain had his license revoked for not realizing his F/O was drunk. Total B.S. I think it was the union or someone else paid for all his ratings. Since this was before the 1500 hour rule he got back to flying commercially pretty quickly.
