Yep, no "more" Ramp Checks. They are pretty rare, the joke the CFI tell new students is if you know what you're doing, your foreflight/pilot license really is just a piece of "paper."

But then the checklist for pre flight is supposed to scare you into compliance, and that all these rules were created because it had cost someone blood. Many seasoned pilots blood too.

While this is off topic, from the original post and my reply - just confirming that inspectors at small aviation airports are very, very rare.
