I finished my MEI checkride last Wednesday!!!!! @ USMCFLYR you are right, I was thinking outside the box with that comment, @ gdpballin they were for the first 2 times, but they got better. I had to remind myself that things are moving faster and to keep my scan moving, and im studying down at Spartan College in Tulsa, Ok @ joepilot, as someone mentioned, nope theres a different checkride for each one. I did it in this order because it saved me a bit of money, i may go somewhere where having my MEI already may be beneficial.

Doing the same thing...however, my CFII certificate has a rotorcraft qual and not an airplane qual.
1) I know I can do the MEI as an add-on rating, but do I have to do all the strange maneuvers since I don't technically have an airplane CFII? I have an ASEL and AMEL commercial ticket.
2) Doesn't this all fall under "basic pilot stuff", as in, fly-the-plane-VFR-in-the-configuration-airspeed-and-altitude-you-intend?
