very wurd. How was the chk ride?

It was actually fairly straight forward and easy.

Once he asked a few questions and saw that I was on top of my game he just kinda breezed through the PTS.

Then he made a list of things we were going to do in the plane (didn't really give me choices, but picked Lazy 8s instead of chandelles and steep turns instead of steep spirals)

We got in the plane, went down the list, came back, did a go around came back around landed, around again, second landing and that was it

It was simple to be honest, he just said do this this this and this and I did and that was it, no gotchas or gimmes or any tricks (like trying to chandelle you into clouds or anything like that)
