Be careful not to get burnt out on the checkrides...The initial CFI was my longest rating besides my private and the 8 hour oral left my head spinning. By the time the practical rolled around, I was toast. Pink-slipped on the power-180...landed in specified distance but then he gave me a go-around and I pulled up gear instead going to 15 degrees flaps first...whoops. Flaps, Gear on positive rate, flaps. Are you doing any of your rides with the FAA or with a DE?
