A WORD TO THE WISE.
NEVER discuss anything with the FAA.
As a retired commercial pilot, I've had my share of encounters with the FAA. The one that come to mind is after a very serious discussion the FAA inspector said, You haven't admitted anything. When I asked what he meant, his reply was, people will deny doing one thing while admitting to doing something else. We then charge that person with the violation they admitted too.
You are not required to answer any questions asked by the FAA. Politely decline.
The burden of proof is on the FAA.
BE VERY CAREFUL, THE FAA IS NOT YOUR FRIEND.
