I just got a notice from the IL department of transportation saying that I have to register with them and pay a $10.00 fee. At the back of the form it says "Operation of an aircraft without proper registration of a Federal Airman Certificate is a Class A misdemeanor punishable by a fine not to exceed $1,000 and/or up to one year in jail. See 620ILCS 5/42 (1992) IL Complied Statutes."
What the heck it this and is this normal for all States. Why do I have to register myself when I got my PPL? Is it because I live in the people republic of Illinois? I'm kind of pissed right now but if this is normal, I'll calm down. Just to clarify, they want me to register, not an aircraft I'm building or own.
