That is EXACTLY what the psych eval is about.
Are you tolerable, are you a "Normal Person" or do you have issues?
It's not about qualifications, any moron can fly an airplane and a lot of them do. The Shrink is there to keep the real problem children out, and he's doing a great job. In 28 years, I can honestly say, there was only one guy I've flown with who had issues...but he might have been going through a divorce, so I bought his beer and let it go. 99.9% of the guys I fly with are great guys to fly with, hang out with, etc. So, what ever the shrink is doing, he's doing it well.
Don't tell the shrink that you liked blowing .... up in the Air Force. This guy failed the psych eval. He told us that this is the only thing he could think of that the shrink would have a issue with.
