(Paragraph c. FAA Advisory Circular AC No. 00-46D)
c. The filing of a report with NASA concerning an incident or occurrence involving a violation of 49 U.S.C. Subtitle IV, or the FAR, is considered by FAA to be indicative of a constructive attitude. Such an attitude will tend to prevent future violations. Accordingly, although a finding of a violation may be made, neither a civil penalty nor certificate suspension will be imposed if:

1. The violation was inadvertent and not deliberate;

2. The violation did not involve a criminal offense, or accident, or action under 49U.S.C. Section 44709 which discloses a lack of qualification or competency, which are wholly excluded from this policy:

3. The person has not been found in any prior FAA enforcement action to have committed a violation of 49 U.S. C. Subtitle VIII, or any regulation promulgated there for a period of 5 years prior to the date of the occurrence; and

4. The person proves that, within 10 days after the violation, he or she completed and delivered or mailed a written report of the incident or occurrence to NASA under ASRS. See paragraphs 5c and 7b. NOTE: Paragraph 9 does not apply to air traffic controllers.

Not necessarily, Jerry.

Jenny and I arrived at Swainsboro, Ga, after having to divert from our destination for weather concerns, (home..2J3) and KSBO is 30 miles south.

Upon arrival, there were cars and people along the edge if the runway, preparing for a fireworks display...it was July 4th, last year....and no X's on the runway ends and no notam either, so we didn't land but managed to wrangle our way home, dodging thunderstorms anyway.

I had been on Flight following, so, to be safe, I sent in a NASA report after calling the mayor and the FBO to inquire as to why there were no X's or notams.

NASA report was acknowledged and I kept a copy.

Best,
