Ok so I've been working on starting my aircraft sales company for a while. I got distracted recently and mostly gave up but have just started going at it again. Well, at the same time my dad is starting a business that involves training pilots by using an FAA certified full motion simulator (Redbird FMX). We both need the addresses of all pilots, student and non within a 100mi radius. So, I've been trying to contact the FAA for the past 3 weeks to get this "easy to obtain" information from them and all I get is answering machines and stupid automated menus.
WTF, why can't people just pick up the phone anymore? My favorite part was what happened tonight. I called a number given to me by somebody that works for the FAA. Well, of course there's 20 different options to choose from and I pick the one that I should....guess what...it give me a different phone number to call! I call that number and listen to the different options and amazingly....it gives me the number that I called before calling this one. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
No wonder everything that has to do with the government takes forever! This is bull s**t!!
