Hey guy, I'm up for my Mulit-engine instrument ride tomorrow morning. I passed the Oral portion of it today, I was super excited to pass that since i don't particularly like the Oral portion of check rides. I just need to shoot 3 IAP's 1 normal 1 Partial panel 1 single engine 1 GPS 1 VOR 1 ILS/DME Wish me luck!
Well just went in to pick up my temporary cert today. I am now a Single and multi engine land instrument pilot; now on to commercial multi.
Congrats. I'm not far from my IFR checkride and I am nervous about the oral portion of it too. Well, for that matter, I'm nervous about the checkride too. I've had two practice checkrides: one went beautifully and one didn't go so well. Practice, practice, practice.
the oral wasn't that bad over all. I got asked about my en route WX and chart symbols. Then i had to explain the pitot and static systems in the PA-44 and then i had go explain how GOS works. I spend about 10min explaining the GPS before my check examiner just said thats good just what are the CDI values for full scale deflection, to which i replied "O, 5,1,.3". then we mover on the the HSI and that was about it. It was under a part142 check, but its not much different from a part 141, its all the the PTS. I think the flight is the best part i knew exactly what they were going to have me do so it wasn't that bad.
