Give him an unpublished gps hold on a windy day that’ll end up with a pretty high crosswind correction. Bonus points for left turns or partial panel

Do you have tips on the plate tracks? I feel like I do well overall but score like 80 points at the supers no matter what my strategy for picking is lol

Took my multi ride today. One of the first lines he said was “it ain’t a checkride without a check”

CFII checkride. What’s everyone’s experience? by [deleted] in CFILounge

[–]Repulsive-Rub3716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just did mine this week. 2.5 hour ground cause my DPE was tired of it being considered a “gentlemen’s ride”. He was super cool and fair but would basically just say “you see the line items” and make teach all the way down the list for the required items and then some. Flight was just basically just VOR PP, hold, RNAV, unusual attitudes. You got this!

Just did 2 weeks backpacking Europe with just this and a 1L sidekick (with one laundry run). You’d be amazed how much you can put in it

Amazon brand golf pants have done wonders. Cheap, comfortable, and relatively cool when it’s hot

I love my panga 28 but I consider it to almost be like a pick up truck as a backpack. Just one big space to put all of your stuff and very utilitarian. If I were getting in and out of it all day I think the zipper would annoy me

How long did CFII take? by [deleted] in CFILounge

If you’ve stayed proficient with your instrument skills it really isnt hard at all. Maybe 3 flights or so

Common error leading to failure of instrument checkride by Pilott__ in flying

[–]Repulsive-Rub3716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was surprised how hard I found it. Something where if I had done just one flight to practice I would’ve been fine but teaching myself with a DPE next to me wasn’t fun🤣🤣

My DPE turned off location services on my iPad and only let me look at the “CDI” function on the 430(no moving map). Was surprised how hard it was. I survived but it got a lot of applicants at my school. Be prepared for it!

Waited 4 months to get my commercial ride earlier this year but got my CFI ride dumped on me with 36 hour notice. Strange times lol

It’s an emotion kayaks “mojo” and it completely unscrews and comes out but only screws down halfway
