| Re: Finally Hey man, congratulations. I think my psyche is still recovering 4 months later! That is one SOB checkride in terms of depth of knowledge. Kinda gives me a headache thinking about it! |

| Re: Finally Congrats! Any pirep from your ride? DE or FSDO? I just did mine a few weeks ago. After today, I have a whopping 2.0 dual given- pretty cool to have a new column to start up in the logbook! While you're still in study mode, start up on the II prep!

| Re: Finally I got lucky and was given a DE. But it was still very hard. The II is coming soon. I just needed a week to hang out and enjoy it for a bit. I havent given any dual yet, but I was assigned 2 students starting next week. Im pretty excited about that. but a bit nervous. any first time mess ups i should be aware of??

| Re: Finally Hey that was the smart thing to do! Get back on that horse and ride it till the legs break off! I got my CFI and moved 7 days later. Haven't flown since (about 4 months). I don't recommend that route.  |
