I found this the easiest of all of the checkrides. You'll do fine! Those instrument approaches will be second nature to you.

They are going to pull the engine on you several times. That's not a secret. Just immediatly react to it and do what you are supposed to do.

Relax and have fun.

Good luck!

I wouldn't call that "sneaky"; it's perfectly proper and a great idea to use it if available. If the examiner doesn't want you to use it, it'll be switched off.

Just fly the way you've been trained; relax, especially during the oral. You won't get everything right either on the ground or in the air - just correct immediately and keep going. You wouldn't have been recommended if you couldn't do it.

It must be so. I'd expect nothing but the facts from Joe Friday.
