I just talked to Frank Dempsey and I did not even know that he let his DPE lapse. I also believe that Michael Percy may still be a DPE in the panhandle of Florida.

[Doug Bo]

Thanks Larry for the update on Frank. News to me. Is there a reason that Michael Percy does not show up on the FAA site? I’m only searching for WSCL.

[Larry Mednick]

I’ll contact him and find out. I wouldn’t be too surprised if he let it lapse as well. It takes a lot to do it and the FAA does not make it easy on them either. The amount of check rides they do each year is not a business, but more of a service to the industry. So let’s all say thanks to our DPEs for doing what they do. I know Abid Farrouqui is considering getting his and he would be in the Tampa area.

[Doug Bo]

Agreed. Big thanks to the DPE / SPE folks. Pretty much a thankless job but very much needed.

[Larry Mednick]

I just contacted Michael Percy, and he does have his DPE still. This is not only good news that he is available, but others must also be available that are not on the FAA list.

Really the best thing is to get them to flag themselves on our world map on this website.

[Doug Bo]

Agreed. It would be interesting to understand why he doesn’t show up on the list of WSCL SPE. Also agree, get them to update the map. On the topic of the map, could you add the functionality to edit our listings? Also maybe like the PPC map, add pins for LSRM folks.

Thanks

Regarding the map, adding my pin hasn’t worked for me so that feature may need to be checked out.

[Larry Mednick]

See if it’s there now. I asked our admin to approve your pin. I have a meeting with him Friday to see if we can take the moderation off the pin drop and speed this site up.

Thank you VERY much for pinning yourself on our World map.
