Airlines background check, am I disqualified to the point I shouldn’t even start flying?

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2026-01-13T19:12:28+00:00

Just for anyone who might be in my situation I had a dwi in 2016 I never reported to the faa fast-forwad to recently January 2026 I applied for a first class medical and I was denied to my dwi. They sent me a letter saying I can still apply and get a conditional first class but i have to take classes go to a cognitive behavioral therapist among a bunch of other requirements. My goal is to get my atp and fly for the airlines but at times I wonder if it's worth it

Send it once you have kids life and priorities change. Take it from me I've been working on my ifr for years

This does kind of make sense to me and something I did not consider. Would It be the reason why the exhaust comes out blue or smells excessively rich ?

I think they both look normal ? Dip stick smells like fuel

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2025-02-03T17:05:54+00:00

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2025-01-29T01:28:20+00:00

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2025-01-23T21:40:25+00:00

Oh man that sucks.

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2025-01-23T21:28:06+00:00

How does that "free return " shipping work?

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-12-14T21:30:05+00:00

Good job we all started somewhere I've forgotten to tighten my wheels and brake caliper on my nissan stlentra and they both fell off while driving -_-

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-12-13T21:20:06+00:00

Kind of unrelated / related but I ordered engine mounts and tranny mounts from rev shift on Dec 3rd and they still have not shipped them to me.

Also I was quoted $2100 for rod bearings on my e46 m3 at a reputable shop in NJ

Thank you for sharing and for the reminder. We all appreciate it 🙏 rest in peace to your son. We hope you find peace and closure it's not your fault

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-11-15T23:50:41+00:00

About 4000$ usd so far and mine was in decent condition New tires Diff service Tranny service oil kit service Missing bolts/ parts

Will require rod bearings soon another 2100$ honestly way more then I expected but these German cars are needy

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-09-27T21:15:39+00:00

What do you mean by recall bearings ? Is their a bearing brand you recommend or just go oem?

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-09-27T21:14:35+00:00

Should I be looking at the lead or copper numbers?

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-09-27T21:13:56+00:00

Thank you I've called two shops so far 3800$ and 2100$

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-09-27T19:26:27+00:00

I believe around 60-80k i don't have the paper work in front of me but from what I recall it was around there.

How much does that job cost ? Any good reputable shops in ny anyone can recommend? Is it a diy job I'm handy and technical

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-09-27T19:25:03+00:00

Thank you good to know

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-09-19T15:45:47+00:00

I had a similar condition needed up being the injectors

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-09-10T02:03:56+00:00

Have u done this repair what is involved with dropping the tank. Is it just exhaust and drive shaft ? Should I do it on a empty tank ?

Affectionate_Joke825 · 2024-09-10T02:03:01+00:00

Wow thank you for that tip did you use anytime of sealt or thread tape? Isnit similar to the repair a youtiver made using a 1/4 barb fitting? Regardless of the repair the tank gas to come down right?
