REFLECTOR: Don't trust the FAA

[Alex Balic]

I'm guessing that if you can't get it online then no-one else will be able
to either- probably the person you spoke with was mildly confused- good luck
with the paper application- would like to hear how that turns out!

I was hoping I could help some folks out. I have a suspicion that there is a
renewal glitch in the computer system that has to do with the
re-registration system.  

 

Unfortunately, they would not renew mine.. even on the phone. I had to
reapply. Here's hoping that I can actually get my "N" number back.. since it
is still registered to ME in their computers!  What are the odds?

Thanks for the thread- mine had expired 3 weeks ago, had some trouble
getting it via the web, called them and got it renewed without further
problems.

I feel your pain. Seattle Tracon retired N104DD almost lost it too!

Yup, they got me. (and I work for these toads). 

 

Have had a reserved "N" number for years now. Every year they send a notice
for renewal, and I promptly renew it. Easy huh?

 

So getting my paperwork in order to register this life long project, I start
looking for the current reservation form. Only one I can find expired June
11th 2012. Hmm can that be right? I didn't receive a renewal form.... 

 

Yup, I never received a renewal form and the "N" number has expired. It
still shows up in the FAA computers as being reserved for me, but they won't
let me have it. I have to fill out the paperwork and request it again. They
swear that they will notice that I am requesting my own "N" number back and
that it will not be rejected.. Yeah, Right. 

Thanks for the help guys!

 

Note: Don't trust the FAA to remind you to renew your reserved "N" number.
When you get it... put it on your calender, or wherever you put important
notices!
