The FAA has issued Bulletin No. 98-1 (dated February 10, 1998) announcing a new enforcement program that will allow FSDO inspectors to issue "tickets" for flight violations. The FAA will use Form 2150-7 which they call an "Administrative Action" — I call it a "ticket." The inspector will decide on the spot whether the ticket is a Warning Notice or Letter of Correction and the airman will be required to sign acknowledging acceptance of the violation at the time it is issued. Unlike a traffic "ticket," you will not get to go to traffic court to prove you were innocent. The citation will be placed in an airman's file for two years and the license holder will have no right of appeal.
