FAA Hotline Complaint

from The Pilot Lawyer Podcast

The FAA exists to ensure public safety. This is why they always have their eyes and ears wide open. Their strict rules and regulations can make even the perfect pilot go crazy. As a pilot, if you break any of their rules, you can say goodbye to your license and your ability to fly. If this wasn't bad enough, they also have an anonymous hotline, where anyone can report you – even for a petty violation. In this episode, you'll discover how to navigate complaints made against you by an anonymous tip to the FAA hotline. You only have one shot to respond to the FAA after a complaint – and having a legal representative will increase your chance of keeping your license. Listen now!
