The approximate number of years (Oct. 2008 - Dec. 2019) that Michael A. Puehler of Cincinnati, Ohio, allegedly conducted questionable pilot certifications as an FAA aviation safety inspector. A Sept. 21 filing this year in U.S. District Court charged that Puehler falsified an airman certificate and application rating for a flight instructor, and that Puehler accepted payment from the instructor while knowing the instructor did not satisfactorily complete any renewal requirements. In 2020, the FAA required the reexamination of airmen whom Puehler tested.


The PHS-5 AATD will also simulate 13 other aircraft types, including the AS350 and the Bell 206. While the simulator is not approved for type-specific training credit, the experience is invaluable for those preparing to train in those relevant aircraft.
