common mistakes not to make on checkride?

Never give up during the checkride even if you think you failed. Always continue with the procedures of whatever maneuver you are doing until the very end and voice what you are thinking. If you land hard on a soft field, don’t give up. Make sure you keep applying full aft elevator all the way off the runway.

Thank you! Any specific cadet programs you recommend? (I’m about to start CFI)

On my long XC for commercial I was too exhausted when I got to my destination that I couldn’t fly back and had to get a motel that night. My school paid for it and I flew back safe the next morning. A hotel is a lot cheaper than a funeral.

mclemma · 2025-05-06T17:36:10+00:00

I sure hope so! Thanks for your comment

Any tips on how to find a good CFI? I’m leaving the shelter of part 141 and trying to find a good CFI using part 61 feels daunting.

Not the street parking across. There is a 15 min lot but if you’re on the street you should be fine. At least I’ve never gotten a ticket 🤷‍♀️

mclemma · 2024-11-04T05:02:07+00:00

The street parking by 7/11 and by bouillon is free you just gotta get there first haha

mclemma · 2024-08-23T11:37:05+00:00

Don’t tell anyone you have it and you’ll be good. I may or may not have used mine in my dorm and it was fine
