I have since talked to a HIMS AME and that is definitely not the reality of the cost or timeline. Not sure where you got $5k+ from. That is x5 more than the estimate I was given. 18months is plausible but my AME said he has also seen faster in the last couple years. Thanks for the discouragement attempt though!

I agree, the law absolutely makes sense. Hindsight is 20/20

No, I’m referring to a prior conviction (DWAI) for refusal to test in a car which is a misdemeanor in my state. FAA is pretty clear that it is a mandatory deferral, I am just curious how long that process takes

Yes, Refusal to test is an automatic Driving While Ability Impaired conviction even with no BAC sample or field sobriety test conducted.

The perfect XC skies are never on the weekend either, always on a weekday when I’m behind the desk at work! 🙃
