Default 222 Complete!

Well I finally had my flight today after deciding it wasn't the best of idea going on Thursday when the winds were high and getting canceled yesterday afternoon because of thunderstorms moving into the area.

I went up this morning with low ceilings, knowing the possibility of not completing the flight was high. I wanted to get whatever I could out of the way. Did the ILS 36 at Fargo, headed on over for the GPS 34 at Hillsboro with 2 turns in holding. Ceilings were too low to do the partial panel there. Got back to Grand Forks to do the VOR 35L with a 12DME arc. Went back up this afternoon to get the partial panel out of the way. Overall it was one of the least stressful check ride ever. I did the oral with FLOM and the flight with HAZE. Both were fair and actually great to get along with.

That's because you were well prepared. You must have had a good instructor or something

A good instructor helps, but every stage check seems like a breeze after going through CAWR for my 102 26. But if I have a chance and my last instructor is still around I might have him for 325.
