Expresset Checkride :(
 

Ok everybody I passed my checkride :) Wasn't my best flying, but good enough :) My sim partner busted on his single engine ILS :(

Saw the frowny face and feared the worst:D Congrats on yours, sucks about your buddy. I take it hes gonna retrain and go again?

Hey, congratulations on passing the check ride! Is your partner all finished or will he get another shot?

thanks fellas, he has to do some retraining then take the ride agian ;)

No biggy. They usually just make you do to the parts you messed up on.

What happened to CRM and helping each other out with some creative calls like, "HEADING", "POWER," "POSITIVE RATE..."

That is too bad be/she busted. It is no fun to be in that situation. I always feel bad as a crew member in those situations like there might have been something else I could have/should have done to save whatever it was.

GOod work Saab...so you were based in ABE not too long ago? I know quite a few people there right now...

I fly out of there too...

what did he to do to bust the single engine ils? was it the missed approach? normally you can use the autopilot for a single engine ils, correct?

Hahaha...ACE...HECK NO!!! But I do fly out of Hangar 7 quite often.
