Thanks a lot everyone. I barely made it too, last day to finish is today. I'm just happy I finished in time. The stage 30 flight was a piece of cake compared to stage 26, and such a pleasant day. On to Instrument now.

Congrats!!!

Stage 26 is supposed to be more in-depth than the 30, and I’m glad your stage 30 experience was great! Have fun with your instrument training!

My oral for 30 was way more in depth then the 26. Both were near 3 hours though. I had a different instructor for the flight then what I had for the Oral for the 30 and besides being nervous to death and stressed, it went better then I expected and the air was relatively smooth. I'm actually at the airport right now, helped a friend with his XC planning for his 30 which he is doing today as well. He just left for the Oral portion. Flight was easier on 26 and the oral was harder on the 30. It all depends on your stage check instructor, and I had a great one for 30. He just sat back and I didn't even know he was there

Pfft... You weren't nervous or stressed... The M3 we were chasing around was too beautiful to keep oneself nervous or stressed.
