I have read posts from last year, that someone or someones has a gouge for Nan.... Anyone? Trying to schedule for mid-late April.

Thanks!
 
Nan's easy to get along with. Just come prepared. I haven't run into hetr in 7 years, so I can't really post anything helpful.
 
Yeah, did my CFI add-on with her. Make sure you know all about Multi-comm and Uni-comm. She is huge on that for some weird reason. I will try to dig thru my stuff to find her gouge that I had. When is your ride?
 
I never liked giving out gouges. Learn as if you were taking a test with a random examiner and you will be a better pilot for it.
 
Trying to pull the trigger and schedule next week for sometime mid April if able. I consider myself prepared for any examiner, just trying to stay in Tulsa rather than FSDO.
 
Is she from the Tulsa area?

Yeah, her office is at Christensen Jet Center South (just North of the tower) on RVS which is on the SW side of Tulsa. RVS is an awesome airport, btw - parallel r/wys, class D, on the edge of Intl's class C, and lots of flight school/personal/business operations. It is consistently ranked in the top 10 or 20 busiest airports in the nation. Too bad it's in Oklahoma...:drool::drool::drool::laff:

Thanks, I thought I had heard that name before.
 
If you need a really good gouge on Nan, PM me for her email address.
She should be well capable of providing you with first hand, accurate "insider" information - promise!
:D

BTW - if you're well prepared, whats the reason for not going with the FSDO?
 
Unfortunately, that is what doing a checkride has come down to.
Well, to be fair, there are SOME examiners out there that have some pretty weird little quirks and obsessions and it can be good to warn the student beforehand.

I agree in principle though.
 
Should not matter what quirks a DPE has or does not have.
Signoff = Ready to pass test with DPE or FSDO.
Lack of oversight. No wonder things are bad.

In an ideal world, yes.

In the real world...

...well, maybe when you CFI for a while you'll see how wrong or right I am.

I'l report back to you then - I promise! :)
Not saying anyone is wrong, but the system is crooked.
Just like AF's having trained their DPE's not to test FOI (or very limited) if the applicant holds a eff'n ground instructor rating. Unbelievable double standards.

Hmm.
Any suggestions on how to fix it?
 
I have met Jennifer. Very nice lady.....

The FSDO won't do a checkride in 2 airplanes. I am doing it in 2 airplanes to save $$.

This checkride means a lot to me, and if it is wrong for me to try and give myself every advantage possible, (i.e. a gouge) then I guess i am wrong.

Thank you all for any help.
