If you just show up for the checkride at the end and throw some FE time and mil docs on the table the APD likely won't feel comfortable with that since he's probably never seen it before, and would not have time to resolve it on the spot.
Yes there will be a disconnect between the interview team and the training dept, guaranteed.
Does the C-130J panel have airplane systems stuff, or just mission systems?
