Administrative Approvals Scheduling

I can perform a variety of administrative approvals, including ground instructor certificates, SOE removal, CFI renewals, and more. 

Several administrative actions can be completed remotely, so an online meeting will be scheduled using Google Meet. If you wish to complete this in person, please indicate this on the booking form. 

Some administrative actions, such as issuing an FAA certificate on the basis of a foreign license and a few others must be completed in person. Please complete the booking form below and I will follow up. 

Waitlist: As new dates become available, I will notify the next few applicants on the list via text message. My schedule varies from month to month due to family and other commitments. I am generally only available during weekdays and only do weekend tests on an exception basis. 

Notifications will go out in waitlist order, with some time given between each notification. You can then go to the calendar and claim an available time if it works for you.

If you cannot accept the options available, I will continue with other applicants but keep you at the top of the notification list.

If you schedule with someone else or your circumstances change, please let me know so I can keep my information up to date.

If we can't find a workable time within three months due to your availability or lack of response, I will need to remove you from the list so that I can more efficiently focus on the remainder of the list. You can rejoin at the end of the line if you'd like.

Final Notes: 

None of this is meant to make the process impersonal or difficult. I’m still happy to talk—I'm just trying to stay organized and fair in a challenging situation where the demand for my time greatly exceeds its availability. Thank you for your understanding.

If you have any further questions, please ask!

Thank you,

John
