If you're an Examiner you would bring your own projector too!

Now its on to the check ride. Ive heard my guy is pretty much straight down the page, nothing to crazy. Im hoping he asks me about spins. Since I just finished up a 1 week spin/aerobatics course

The flight portion isn't bad. It's the oral that you really have to be prepared for. Best of luck!

My oral lasted 6 hours. Flight portion about 1.5.

There is little question that your ability to give instruction matters most. You have already demonstrated required flight skills in your private, instrument and commercial check rides.

Bravo Zulu!

Keep up the training for yourself and be sure to pass it on!

My exam was all day (OAK FSDO). 1/2 day oral and a couple hours of flight time. We spent 1 hour on the oral on altimetry! I have enough knowledge on it for about 10 minutes.
