So they revoke this guy's license, certificate or whatever you want to call
it.

What's to stop him from going to the airport, jumping into his airplane (if
he has one) and flying in the opposite direction of DC?

Has the TSA/FAA/et. al. figured this out yet? In 40 plus years of flying I
have never been checked.

This revocation means exactly, squat.

The revocation means he will be flying illegally, without insurance, and
subject to arrest if he is caught. I've been ramped twice in the past five
years. It's always possible. What do you want the FAA to do, put a full time
suveillance person on him?

If the FAA gets the least indication that he intends to do that, they will get a
court order and impound the aircraft. They used to slap a prop lock on the plane
in those cases, but they got a little stricter after one owner cut the lock off.

Why do men's hearts beat faster, knees get weak, throats become dry,
and they think irrationally when a woman wears leather clothing?
Because she smells like a new truck.
