N Num reservations slow?
Anyone notice a slowdown in the speed of reservations and renewals? I never got my renewal letter last year like I had in previous years like clock work. I redid the reservation but its been well past the 3 weeks the FAA quotes, where as before it was just a few days for the confirmation letter. Site still says my reserved number is unreserved/unallocated. I got confirmation they took my money however....
Anyone else waiting unusually? |
Same
Exactly same for me.

Yeah. I sold my RV-6 over a month ago and the new registration hasn't gone through. I called and they told me they were experiencing about 6-8 weeks lead time.
The good news is that they process everything in the order received. So the delay shouldn't affect your priority. |
Yep.
We placed a request for a number about a week ago and the same has happened. The number has not been removed from the aircraft that had it before it was let lapse. But after about a week the number we wanted has started to show as not available now. We too paid the 10 dollars and got our copy of the transaction. I think all we can do now is hope it all went through and the system is just weeks behind on it's postings. I do talk to "FSDO" from time to time and at last, I was told to be patient, that the system has gotten way behind. That was a few months back in med summer.
Hope this helps, Yours, R.E.A. III # 80888 |
I?ve had similar experience. I don?t think the FAA is sending out reminder letters anymore. Know when your anniversary is and renew before it. Last year I was late waiting on a renewal letter. Fortunately my number was still available.

But I'm not renewing it, so N333GA goes back into the pot. :) |
Busy
FAA too busy processing N Numbers.com scheme. Somehow it doesn?t seem legal, definitely not ethical. They must have someone on the inside.

My letter finally showed up this past Saturday, about 2 months total time......never did get a renewal card like in the past years tho....

I wish they would disallow the practice ... |
I reserved my n number online about a month ago and just received the letter today. Ironically, I sent my registration paperwork in about two weeks ago and got it back yesterday! I was expecting to wait several months. Even the phone recording said they were still processing apps from back in August.
