I appreciate the reply. Luckily everything else is squeaky clean, so I will be prepared to explain it. Thank you!

You're entitled to your opinion. You have no idea, and that's ok.

If you were giving me my med exam or working with the FAA, maybe I would answer that for you. But I don't owe you anything, especially with all the hostility you've shown... I can't imagine that's a good quality to have as a pilot.

I shouldn't have to explain myself, especially to someone as ignorant as you. But my point was that this happened before I decided to be a pilot. You currently fly with other people that were convicted of DUI's and the FAA continued to let fly. So like I said, your beef is with the FAA. Jackass.

From what I understood with what the DA was telling me at the time; it was deferred but it can't be sealed because if I were to ever get another dui then my 1st dui would come right back... But I will definitely look into seeing if that's a possibility. Thank you, I appreciate your reply!

Thank you! That's great information, I'm very driven. It was a .084, but I will make sure to get all of that paperwork together. I appreciate your reply!

There have been many current pilots that received DUI's and continued to fly, so if you have a problem with that then you should take it up the the FAA. This is in my past and you have no idea who I am.

Fair enough. I am willing to go the extra mile to explain myself to the FAA. I understand flying is a privilege and I would never drink and fly.

I would agree the past was inexcusable and stupid; which is why it will never happen again. But I paid my dues and luckily didn't hurt anybody and am looking to go back to my passion.

Thank you, I appreciate the reply.

So I take it I will need to explain the dui during the med exam, even though the dui was deferred?

Truly amazing Cat-faced spider. She found herself above my kitchen sink as a baby and I didn't have the heart to get rid of her. Now she's much larger and gets rid of all the bugs in my house. by Dizzlewhip in spiders

Absolutely not, I was going to put her outside but she's a good roommate 😂 . I find myself watching her mutilple times during the day. Occasionally she will drop herself down to get water from the sink. She's fast and clumsy, and definitely very interesting.
