civil penalty against airman?

[othello]

Hello
Anyone know where to find a list FAA civil penalties against persons who have violated the Federal Aviation Regulations. flying without a licence, or medical. Intentional rule violations? Min- Max fines that kinda stuff.
I thought I saw a link on this site before with specific examples but can't seem to find it.

No I didnt do anything, just want to see if I can see what happend to a former student.

I remember that link, and I will try to find it. It was a bit of an eye-opener to have the general notion that the FAA can't take anything more than your ticket and can't put you in jail dispelled.

They certainly can take your money (via civil authorities) ... and they can have your ass locked up for years and years, too.

Here's the FAA's list of civil penalty case files:

Also here is the DOT Office of Inspector General's "reading room" which has information on *criminal* cases.

I think you're looking for "APPENDIX 4. ENFORCEMENT SANCTION GUIDANCE TABLE." It's in FAA Order 2150.3A. You can find the full text of the document here:

Thanks for the links Asquared...very interesting reading.

Remember when the 50 Democrat legislators went into self imposed 'exile'? Evidently, the dissapearance of one of the legislator's aircraft generated some excitement in the form of a 24 page report...

Federal Aviation Administration
Efforts to Locate Aircraft N711RD

Our investigation found that on Monday, May 12, FAA personnel in Oklahoma City, OK, Washington, DC, and Fort Worth, TX, received separate requests for information as to the location and destinations of a general aviation airplane reportedly associated with the absent Texas legislators. This airplane, a twin-engine Piper Cherokee—tail number N711RD—is registered to State Representative Pete Laney. We found that at least 13 FAA personnel were involved in responding to the various requests for information about N711RD on May 12.

Our investigation included over thirty (30) interviews of individuals, examination of FAA transcripts and other FAA and Department of Transportation records, and research we performed to determine the extent to which flight data information about general aviation aircraft is publicly available.

wow they really dont screw around...

Tony O. Cox, of Burlington, NC, was sentenced in U.S. District Court in Winston Salem, NC to five months in jail, five months home confinement, and three years supervised release for falsifying an FAA application for a student pilot license and accompanying airman medical certificate. In November 2004, Cox was convicted at trial on a felony count of falsifying the application by failing to disclose a prior drug conviction. DOT OIG investigated the case with assistance from FAA, whose representatives provided key testimony in the trial and sentencing phase on implications for aviation safety from these offenses.

That was the one that really hit home. When I applied for my first student license/medical in 1996, I had a small handful of ramp-regulars tell me if I disclosed a misdemeanor conviction (paraphranalia) from 1993 on my medical the FAA would deny me, and that I should not list it cuz "they'd never know".

I listed it anyway, and I listed it on every app since. If I hadn't, during my federal background investigation last year I'd have joined Mr. Cox.

That's why I try to tell the posters we see here every now and again who are debating whether or not to list something that was supposedly buried, exactly what the federal agent told me last year after I was done and signed off as a good citizen D) ...

"If you have ever been arrested for anything, at any time ... we will know. I don't care if you were six years old ... had it expunged ... had records sealed ... whatever. We will always find it in about two seconds."

Be careful with $h!thouse lawyers, folks.

That is the one thanks for the help.

Cornie Gene Lowe was ordered by a U.S District Court judge in Del Rio, TX, to pay a $5,000 fine and spend 6 months in jail for piloting a plane without a pilot’s license and lying to the FAA. Lowe flew as pilot-in-command from Del Rio to Ruidoso, NM, even though FAA revoked his pilot's license in December 2001. He also made false entries in airman logbooks as though he were a certified flight instructor and signed off biennial flight reviews of other pilots when he was not authorized to do so. Lowe co-owns Fontera Aviation, Inc, an aircraft fuel business at Del Rio International Airport in Texas. OIG conducted the investigation with assistance from FAA.

Got to love this stuff.
cuff um and stuff em, goo goo goo
