I was just saying that by applying what was taught to me before I failed a check-ride.
Anyway it was my fault for not researching more about all the maneuvers and what was expected from me, the instructor that I flew with to prepare for the ride thought it was gonna be a piece of cake for me since I had more time than he had, so he didn't tell me a lot of things thinking I already knew everything, and that was a big mistake I had to suffer
Checkride busts are now more scrutinized after 3407 thanks to the media. Explaining it that way in the message board, people will understand...the media, not so much.
