MEMORANDUM **
1. The record shows that the charter company for which Ferguson piloted three flights designated those flights as “charter” in its maintenance log and was paid *653for the time period in which Ferguson flew. And Ferguson doesn’t argue that he shared a common purpose with his passengers. Therefore, even if we disregard the FAA inspector’s testimony, the NTSB’s determination that Ferguson piloted commercial flights “logically arise[s]” from the facts in this case. Meik v. NTSB, 710 F.2d 584, 586 (9th Cir.1983).
2. Ferguson fails to demonstrate that the ALJ showed bias stemming from an extrajudicial source or “ ‘a deep-seated favoritism or antagonism that would make fair judgment impossible.’ ” Miller v. Commodities Futures Trading Comm’n, 197 F.3d 1227, 1235 (9th Cir.1999) (quoting Liteky v. United States, 510 U.S. 540, 555, 114 S.Ct. 1147, 127 L.Ed.2d 474 (1994)). Ferguson’s argument that the NTSB is an outlier in not providing for automatic reassignment on remand is meritless. See Eolas Techs., Inc. v. Microsoft Corp., 457 F.3d 1279, 1283 (Fed.Cir.2006) (noting Seventh Circuit is “unique” in making automatic reassignment on remand for new trial “the norm”).
3. The NTSB did not err in ordering additional cross-examination, rather than a new hearing, on remand. While a vacated decision has no legal effect, U.S. Bancorp Mortg. Co. v. Bonner Mall P’Ship, 513 U.S. 18, 22-23, 115 S.Ct. 386, 130 L.Ed.2d 233 (1994), it doesn’t follow that vacatur requires a new trial in all instances; it frequently doesn’t.
PETITION DENIED.
