A step closer?

Took my written today. Stress city!!!! :-/<br><br>anyway anyone want to place bets on .... Pass? ...... Fail?........... Total Score?.............<br><br>Let's see ;D

Now, wait just a cotton-pickin minute here, Ron...<br><br>Last FAA quiz I took, had to sit at a computer, and it was graded instantaneously... er, pretty quick, anyway. So I suspect you know how you did. <br><br>Which makes betting against you kind of like the Lottery: &quot;A tax on people who are bad at mathematics.&quot;<br><br>Me, I've been reading your posts for a couple years, and I'll guess you scored about 90. (this, not knowing what is on a PPL(G) written). I know you passed. <br><br>cheers<br><br>-=K=-<br>

I took the Private pilot SEL - fixed wing - test. I am getting my rating in fixed wing first and will go after rotorcraft sometime down the road............... maybe. &nbsp; &nbsp; You know there is that whole &quot; you can fly ANY experimental with ANY powered rating&quot; thing we have discussed before. <br><br>Yes I took the test on the computer and did get my score right afterwards. I am just curious what you guys think I did on it. I will spill the beans tomorrow some time.

Yeah, after I posted I saw your post in another thread with the old Piper (Pacer?) you're learning in. <br><br>We had a Tri-Pacer, old N8638D. Great short field machine. With flaps extended, sink rate of a stone (for a plane. After a gyro it must seem floaty!)<br><br>Since it's the PPL (A) I revise my guess up, to 95. (grin)<br><br>cheers<br><br>-=K=-<br><br><br><br>

Ron: &nbsp; I have no doubt you passed... I bet you got at least a 95. &nbsp; &nbsp; I still remember my test as if it was yesterday. I did well on it and the check ride was more nerve wracking. I had a date set...and it ended up being a nice sunny day...but only 5 degrees. &nbsp;I am not one to deviate from my plan. &nbsp;If the Piper Tomahawk started....I was flying to Danville, Il for that check ride.<br><br>I never will forget my examiner's surprised look when I came in for the check ride. &nbsp; We went &nbsp;on with it..and the only thing that we didnt do was pull the throttle back for a simulated engine out. &nbsp;He just didnt want to do that with the cold temperatures. &nbsp;Anyway...that check ride was Dec. 19th, 1983....20 year anniversary coming....<br><br> Ron...good luck with your check ride....I am sure you will do fine.....just watch out for being asked to do anything out of the ordinary. &nbsp;

Well thanks guys for the kind words! I'll go ahead and spill....<br><br>Score= 92<br><br>I missed 5 questions out of 60.<br><br>Yes I am nervous about the checkride. &nbsp;

Great Job Rob,<br><br>I'm very proud of you. ;D &nbsp;How many more hour before your final check ride.<br><br>Did I see a pic of a tail dragger? &nbsp;You are training and check ridding in a taildragger?<br><br>More power to you ;D<br><br>john-

[GyroRon]

Tri gear is for whimps.

[Screw]

Isn't (or wasn't) your gyro a Tri-Gear? ;D

thanks John L., I got tired off not having it and making excuses.<br><br>John S. &nbsp;my gyro is only a whimpy tri gear during taxi, it takes off and lands as a taildragger

[Screw]

Nice answer. &nbsp;I learned to fly in a J-3 cub. &nbsp;I love tail draggers.<br><br>BTW- My next gyro will be a tail dragger.
