One of the test pilots is a very good friend of mine. Now I know what he's been working on for the past several years!

Yep - I do know Joe (one of the pilots) has a good line of communication with the local MIDO office. Not only an ATP, he's also an A&P and wrenches on his own airplanes, great guy.

It's all in the approach - I think if you bring the Feds on board early enough and convince them about the benefits of a program like this they will work with you.
