I’m also a student pilot out of Bartow, Fl and I’m in anticipation of my check ride. These tips will come in handy when my time comes. The only problem is that I don’t get enough back to back practice because I’m a full time college student. I wish there was a way for me to make time to get more airtime. I found the advice on the General Aeronautical Knowledge Test a great help. Sometimes you just don’t relax and think things through. Another great section that is often forgotten is Pilot Skills many times we freak out and try to over control the aircraft. More often than not we end up worse than if we let the plane trim out on its own. I also found the advice on the Weather Knowledge aspect of the test helpful. The advice of practicing at home with DUATS is something I never thought of. I also liked the part of number nine Pass or Recheck. In our lives we are always told it’s bad to be wrong but now I think it’s ok if I make a mistake once in awhile. Now at this time your thinking that I don’t know much, but I just started and have only about three hours logged. I just wanted to get out there and see what there is before I just jump in without seeing what is out there for help. I will say that I wish that there were more blogs like this out there for young pilots like myself. We can always use some helpful advice when we are learning something new.

I have gotten a 90% on the knowledge test and have progressed well from my primary training (stated by my chief flight instructor). I have started college and have forgotten some of the knowledge needed to complete the FAA check ride, or at least I believe I have. Maybe it could just be me worrying if I will pass the first time or have to perform the check ride again a second time. By reading this posting it has helped me understand what to study and how to have a greater chance at passing the FAA check ride. I am using the Private Oral Exam Guide and Practical Test Standards as a way to prepare my self for the flight. These nine facts stated in the posting I believe will help me feel more comfortable with the approach of the FAA Designated Examiner on the day of the check ride. I know that the examiners are just looking for the knowledge of safe flight procedures and the ability to make knowledgeable decisions based on certain circumstances but I believe everyone preparing for their first check ride gets questionable or what if feelings before their first FAA check ride.

It's even more than just fun. Absolutely agree, I know people who simply started a new life when they went for flying lessons. It’s even more than just fun.

Thanks for posting this. I'm a student pilot out of Spokane, WA (KGEG) and I'm constantly thinking about that checkride. I love reading other experiences with the examiner. Usually things go a lot easier than people thought they would be.
