Are you certain that your registration has really expired?
If you were already registered with the FAA as of 12/12/2017 and never requested to have the registration reversed, your registration was automatically extended through December of 2020. Go to https://faadronezone.faa.gov/#/ and click “Log In” in the upper right-hand corner. Use the email address you originally registered with to login. If you do not recall your password, click on the “Forgot Password” link. You’ll receive an email to walk you through resetting your password. Once in your account, you can print a copy of your UAS certificate.
To be clear, we're apparently talking about a hobbyists's registration, which is to say in today's terms, a registration for a RECREATIONAL FLYER, per post #8. The registration is for the pilot, or for the recreational flyer, not the aircraft. I'm sure everybody knows one registration for a recreational flyer can cover one thousand drones or more. UAS (aircraft) registration only applies to Part 107 pilots.
An amazing post - and one from an Australian! Here I am literally 19 miles from FAA headquarters on Independence Ave. in downtown Washington D.C. thinking I'm good and fairly well plugged in to what's going on, but just for fun I look in my wallet. EXPIRATION 2/19/2019 in BIG BOLD LETTERS. HAHAHAHHAHA. That is hilarious. I actually laughed out loud. I never even had a clue. I figured they would let me know when to renew. I've dutifully kept this certificate in my wallet 24/7 ready to whip it out. Silly me.
Anyway I guess I'm good for another year plus, right? And no, I'm not doing a reprinted certificate showing the new expiration date. I'm busy here.
Disturbing that I had to learn this from a guy who is literally on the other side of the planet.
Maybe I should go back to pp?
Nah.
