Default FAA Part 61 & 141 FAQ's Gone!

You found a link, not the documents. If you can still find them, you have a
very magical computer, indeed! Try clicking on the link! While several
links still exist throughout the FAA's web pages, they are invalid links and
the actual Part 61 and 141 documents have been removed from the FAA's web
site. Moreover, AFS-800 has been told to stop working on them.. How so I
know? The day they disappeared, I called AFS-800 (202 267-3844) and asked
them where the FAQ's had gone. I was told that the decision to remove them
came from "upstairs," meaning either from the Administrator's Office or from
the Director of Flight Standards. On 12-06-05, all DPE's who are singned up
for the Designee Notification System received the following email:

Where did the website go. The public relations folks wanted to be the ones
answering all the questions presented to the FAA, so it was decided that the
FAQ's would be taken off the FAA website.

If you want this feature back on the FAA website send an email to the
director of Flight Standards requesting this.
