After a 2 1/2 hour oral, and 1.9 on the hobbs im now a multi engine commercial pilot!!
Oral was mainly over Systems of the pa-34-200 seneca. Landing gear, electrical, fuel, propeller. had to draw and explain everything. Then moved on to a lengthy discussion on the difference between a spin and a spiral dive. Also had lots of airspace questions. I had to pre-plan a cross country from KDAB to KPIE, so most of the airspace questions were scenario based. what do you do if.... how can i do that... am i still legal... why?
The flight was pretty straight forward. Departed kdab, did a regular traffic pattern at KOMN, for a short field landing and nailed it. Took off to the north to do maneuvers. Did steep turns, power on and off stalls, Slow flight, Vmc Demo, and a full feather shutdown and restart. Finally an emergency descent followed by a single engine ILS back into daytona.
Rather un eventful flight, one of the easier checkrides i've had.
