New FAA certificates
I recently read about the FAA issuing new security improved Airman certificates with its seal on them to some 950000 active pilots.
Anyone got more info about this ?
Will US pilots flying outside the States benefit from such move as well ?
Thanks in Advance

To be issued only if original is lost, and a replacement is requested, or...
new category/class/type rating issued.
Will be mailed directly from Oklahoma City to most any foreign location, provided the holder has the proper mailing address on file.

You can request to receive one of the NEW certificates from the FAA. At the EAA airshow in OSH you could had filled out the paperwork listing your certifications (I'm only CTO certified) and received the new certificate at no charge.

No picture I'm told. But it will be plastic like a credit card instead of cardboard. Seems a shame to go all that trouble to not include a photo on them.
THey will be issued for all new licenses & for anyone upgrading an existing license or requesting a replacement certificate.
I know I plan to get one.
By the way... who goes to OSHKOSH to do paperwork?

Check out the AOPA.org website - I believe they have posted a piccie.
Seems a sensible step, as the existing "do it yerself jobbies" look as impressive as a buy one get one free coupon.

Got mine a week ago... I found them to be "lowest bidder" job... they look nice, but appear cheaply done... Tho, much better than the old stuff.
Picture? Well, it seems that would have been too much work for them... And just a thought of using DMV pics... are we asking too much here?
You have to have a picture ID accompany the certificate instead...

I didn't want to have to be the one...
...to say so, but Eaglejet, if you would just scroll up five posts above your first request you'd actually see a scanned image of the new certs!
Good luck!
