As I suspected there was a lot of confusion as to what needed to be done to reinstate the license. To make a long story short, I started trying to renew the license on September 2nd and finally received my license on December 11th after jumping through all the hoops I finally took my checkride and got the license. In the end the process I went through was the same process that I went through to get the license initially except for one small written test that they waived as a reward for putting the license in safekeeping.<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate the end of a long process we went out to the hangar as a family and Maycie and Dylan rode with me on my first passenger flight since returning to the field this time. It was a drawn out process but God was gracious and I was able to accomplish everything I needed to up to this point with the temporary license that was issued to me in October. I&#8217;ll start getting back behind the controls the last week of January and in February will begin flying full-time as the field pilot again so that Joel and Missy Davis can go on their home assignment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we left for our home assignment the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) refused to renew my pilot&#8217;s license early.
