Don't talk to us.

Why not?

Contact AOPA Legal Services NOW! Do not discuss

anything here -- it's public and can be used against you.


What did he possibly say that could be used against him? He never admitted
to doing anything wrong or unlawful.

Not yet, but the thread could easily develop into details that might not
be helpful.


Call an aviation lawyer if you're not a member of AOPA Legal Services.

Now.


Paranoia can destroy ya.

Yes, but "only the paranoid survive" to quote a famous businessman.


Well, maybe, but then there's no reason why he shouldn't be able to discuss
his problem with these NG's.

A lawyer could give you lots of reasons not to have such a discussion here.


We had a series of violations charged at our airport and everybody got that
ol' time religion all of a sudden. An FAA agent came and carded a bunch of
us and wrote several people up. He was very courteous and fair about it,
and iirc everybody who got into compliance, except for a student pilot who
had stolen a 172 and had 3 other souls aboard w/o a signoff, was let off the
hook, once they began walking the straight and narrow. It made me rather
admire the FAA for their reasonableness.

The trouble is that the FAA isn't reasonable or unreasonable, its
various employees are or are not reasonable. The complication is that
you don't know in advance which one will show up.
