Default MEI Checkride

This morning I passed my MEI checkride, and by far, it was the easiest of the CFI rides. I'm just glad that its over! So if anybody wants to split time, let me know

Thanks! I did the ride in a Seminole. I originally wasnt going to get the rating, but the FBO I am renting from wanted ten hours in type to rent the plane ( I had never flown a Seminole). So I figured if I had to ride with an instructor for 10 hours, I might as well get a rating out of it.

Congratulations. I have my CFII/MEI ride on Thursday, so hopefully I can report back with some good news!

Good job, my school is getting a twin soon, and I am anxious to get started. I am going to do a good portion of my commercial in the twin.

Yeah, I agree it was a cake ride after the CFI initial. It was a welcome relief but it can still bite you in the a** if your not prepared(obviously). Good luck to the rest of you as well
