Anyone else find this a little strange? You have to climb at an obscene rate to get to 28000 then down to 22000 :-/. You get ZERO ATC interaction :-?. Oh and dont set the flaps if your rolling cause thats a BIG FAIL! Even if your only doing 2kts ::). Hmm

I wouldn't take the checkrides too seriously. If you can pass them you are either (a. a robot or (b. autopilot

I stopped those stupid lessons after Student Pilot....and look at me!  I have flown around the world, crossed the Pacific at least 10 times, crossed the Atlantic at least 20.  I probably have more than 10000 sim hours under my belt and a couple million miles.  I mean who needs a stupid MS certificate anyways?

Exactly Jake. Or Dakota Jake. Or Blue Man... (IMHO Dakota Jake was better!) The requirements for a pass are just CRAZY!
