I don't think you need a current medical but if you fly actively (manned aircraft) you do need one. Yes, you need to have done a BFR in the last 2 years. See the link below: Becoming a Pilot

I received mine this week. :)

I just received mine. It took about 6 weeks. When you show up in the Airmen DB with a certificate # you should be getting it soon.

I've seen on an aviation forum that the certificates are being sent out. It will be a separate card from your PPL.

I've seen an eagle or a hawk flying around 4000ft from an airplane. :)

One thing I noticed about landings.com it doesn't show airmen info if they choose to keep their address private.

It will probably show up on the airmen registry. I remember it took awhile for my name to show up after I got my PPL.

Pilot error. After investigation, Navy’s Blue Angels will stop using maneuver that killed a pilot

Contact your local FSDO for the forms. It's faster. I received mine in a couple days. Make sure to get at least 2 in case you screw up on the first one.

Knowledge of TAFs ridiculous for drone usage? You gonna fly your drone when the TAF says: 20025G40KT 2SM SHRA OVC020

When I spoke to the lady at the FSDO she said it would be a different certificate #. She said it's not like a rating on your current certificate. So we would have 2 certificates.

I called the FSDO up on Monday for an appt. and they told me the inspectors won't be around til next month. I contacted a CFI but waiting for him to get back to me. :(

Just got off the phone with the FSDO. They said inspector won't be available til next month. :( The CFI I did my BFR with went to the airlines so he's no longer around. I'll probably just find a CFI at my local flight club to the sign off. :)

I'm just gonna call the FSDO up for an appointment after I fill out the IACRA tomorrow. Luckily I saved my FTN and login info. :D

Can you share what company this is?
