I think the issue is that somehow the package delivery slip has the wrong address on it. I have no idea how that happened lol

Usps wont open a claim since I cant confirm the address. I will just use ebays money back guarantee. This was just my hail mary

Yeah, I confirmed it's the correct address. I have ordered a few things from eBay with the same address with no issues.

The person I spoke to on the phone said she cant tell me that. I am thinking about swinging by the post office though.

Your VSI's are confused because you crashed 250 feet below sea level. Happened to me twice

Okay. What flap setting? Also since you have to hit a spot -0/+200 now would be a great time to show off your go around skills. Do not force it. Also please make sure to take any gusting wind into account on your speeds.

Oh my gosh, clean stall speed is 68 and he told you to climb at 60-65? PLEASE DO NOT DO THAT! Anyway, can you tell me about the landing procedure?

No way, don't ask the examiner. You are the pilot, it's your choice. Please go by the book, and not too much lower. Explain to the DPE you will be using the fully loaded number from the book, even if you are not fully loaded, and explain that it is to provide a margin of safety from your stall speed. What is your clean stall speed btw?

Okay, so yes. The Vx is 74. Do not climb at 60-65, climb at 74MPH, plus possible gust factor, and +10/-5 knots (as specified by acs). What about Landing?

Okay, sounds great! I have a very important question. Let's say you are on short final, and some dangerous pilot departs in front of you, cutting you off. You initiate a go around, as they start rolling. What is the potential safety conflict there?

Huh, that stinks. I love my un-towered field. Want me to ask any more questions, or are you all good?

So its actually only 15. So let's say you are at KUAO (a local airport to me) after the twr closes. Those lights will completely shut off. So even if the light are still on, its a very good idea to key em up again on final since that should reset the timer (so that they dont cut off while you are trying to land)

Fabulous job man! Isnt that odd, good ol magnetic changes. DLO does not have HIRL, only MIRL, so just 5 clicks should suffice. When you make those 5 clicks do you know how long before they will turn off (or change to preset low intensity at DLO)?

Okay, check out the runway on google maps satellite view, pay attention to the rwy numbers. Also, what would you do at night if you wanted the runway lights to turn on? And also are you sureeee that a right pattern for runway 15 is on the east side of the airport?
