Hello AV64
Those advice are good and follow them.
II'll just add : if your violation has been considered under Part7 of the Air Law then you can have your file cleared from this violation 2 years following the day you paid your fine, provided you don't have another violation within those 2 years. Send a letter to request this as everything in relation to that violation is a legal procedure.
Nobody can check your file in regards to this violation, unless a request is send to Transport. This request has to be signed by you, and the "employer".
Then Transport will contact you, to obtain your clearance and signature to give the available information contained in your file.
just make sure you keep that relatively secret, as rumor and reputation are quickly built and would not reflect what you are in reality. your first employer may appreciate that you've been a good student and learned from this error.
Before flying just make sure you now your airspace, what you're going to do and where, is it safe and is it legal ?
be careful and know your regulation in and out.
happy flying !
