Private checkride went horribly wrong!

So now "Pete" somehow knows that you're trying to sell your plane. I'm pretty sure somebody is trying to win a bar bet that he can get a thread to 300 posts. Ed had him pegged.

Nah, nothing you can get hold of can keep up. I'll use one of whatever you're flying. Let me know when you get your ticket and we'll arrange it.

All he had to do was look at my website.

I apologize, Sir, for being rude to you earlier. I really do respect the elderly. I help old men like you hobble across the street. If you ever need someone to help you climb up into you plane, Sir, I'd be happy to help you.

Wow. Well done. I wasn't entirely positive yesterday, but today you just confirmed for me that you are a total prick.

Yes, actually, now that you ask I am indeed. I am a powerful personality. I do get my way. I have an aura about me in real life that is powerful and overwhelming to most people. Some embrace it, others are threatened. The DPE was threatened by me. There is no doubt.

I demand respect, and i get it. Except here because I exposed my weakness in this test I took and asked for help.

OMG! He's a delusional psychotic, too! Well played, sir...well played!

Nah, he's called out too many people. You for selling a plane. Specific posters for being female. Certain posters for flying for a living. He's calling out too many people to not be trolling.

I was not aware that elderberries smell. My sister-in-law makes delicious elderberry jam.
 
It's only noticeable after one time through the bear.

He screwed up his flight planning on an open book test?

'Pete,' honestly - how the F can you screw that up? You are sitting home when you are planning the altitude. That's a pretty basic misunderstanding of the airspace system at the outset and you showed up with it screwed up.

I don't understand the attitude either.

I don't understand nervous to the point of incompetent blathering either. You alrady PASSED the darn checkride - your instructor gave you a checkride - you passed. He did it again - and THEN and only then - signed you off for the formal checkride. Then you cocked it up.

I have abstained from this thread to this point but you have not expressed good judgment to me, you have not expressed the ability to check your work to make certain what you are doing is in accordance with the rules, you failed - in a situation where someone else is judging you - to have the common courtesy to ask the DPE if he minded that you record your oral portion so you could review it later - and you generally failed to exhibit any kind of decent airmanship on the ground

So you fail. Yes - the guy was probably trying to make sure he had grounds to fail you in case you ran off the FSDO to challenge his test.

As for the $400 - when you are ready to behave like an adult - I would call this DPE, apologize for recording the oral portion without asking first, and then ask him if he wants would be willing to give you another shot. This shows trust in his ability and contriteness - then discuss the fee and what amount he thinks is reasonable to resume the test. You might be very pleasantly surprised with a decent attitude.

I'm not a CFI and I"m not a DPE - but I have been doing what I have been doing long enough to have a finely tuned BS detector . . . and this story pegs the meter.

Thank you. I really do appreciate your comments, and I thank you for your helpful suggestions.

Don't be a ******ned fool. No wonder you're in aviation, you're too stoopid to be able to have a real job. It is in his friggin' signature!!!!

Go drive some more Cessnas. Get the hell out of here, moron. You're not worthy to be in my presence.

i do feel bad about this. I comprehensively ***** slapped that old man to the ground, it is true. I am sorry for that. I truly feel bad.
 
well, kids, I'm enjoying a $500 bottle of wine and it is going down well.

F you all, and have a good night.

Bye bye
 
Something leads me to believe that amongst the books in Pete's library (even the Kindle app on his iPad), a particular book by D. Carnegie is noticeably absent.

If he's this much "fun" for primary training, imagine IFR training and checkride!

Didn't you complain about the 400.00? Now you are drinking a 500.00 bottle of wine. Usually at about 12-15 years of age, boys realize that the have accumulated all the possible knowledge in the world (I was one of them). Typically by early to mid teens most of us realized how f-ing dumb we are and that our parents actually knew a little of what they were talking about.

One day you will look back on this portion of your life and be completely embarrassed that you were so full of yourself.

Tell me all day long how great you are and feel free to believe it. I am sure in your mind I am as dumb as the rest on this board and you are superior to me. Don't let the fact that I passed my check ride the FIRST time get under your skin.

Nahh, we'll keep it going just **** in your Cheerios, you're not in charge here, the consequence of your action is that we will continue to taunt you you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

Where in the hell did that come from? Elderberries? :rofl::rofl::rofl:

The only question I have left for you is, how much are you paying your CFI an hour? It had better be at least 3 digits an hour to put up with the bull you continue to spout.

As for the moron comment, you appear to be the one who has issues with spelling.

I had colleagues who had memorized virtually the entire movie...they'd occasionally launch into it over lunch. It was hilarious. :goofy:

Almost as much fun as watching Pete here!
 
Not only has this fool never had a bottle of $500 wine, they won't even let him in that side of the store. If anything it's a $5 bottle and only because the store owner will hold a check until Thursday until he gets his allowance.

I would like to thank you Pete. I think you are officially the most hated member on the entire board.

That takes the pressure off some of us newbs. Gracias! :thumbsup:

Perhaps instead of coconuts, Pete has a few lackeys behind his chair making propeller noises...
 
Wow... I sign in to check today's posts, see if Kimberly or anyone else posted more pics of the races, check the student area, etc. and then find myself reading almost 400 posts in this thread. Entertaining and very sad at the same time. Sad for the asshat OP, but also sad that I spent time reading/anticipating what his next psychotic episodic rant may bring.

$500 for a bottle of wine, wine merchants love megalomaniacs. :rofl:

My wine merchant makes fun of them all the time. She calls them "wine snobs." But they do enable her to keep her prices down for the rest of us.

As for Pete, he doesn't grasp the idea that learning to navigate is about more than the result. It's also about the learning process. You learn better when you actually have to do the thinking yourself rather than having a computer do it for you.

Oh, well. On many graves, the headstones glisten, of those who heard, but wouldn't listen.

Troll busted right here. You do realise nobody drinks a $500 bottle of wine? Anyway, since I know more about wine than you do, just entertain us.

Post a picture of you "enjoying" a 500USD bottle of wine, and I will post a picture of me burning 5 100USD notes up in the air. I will be more than happy to do that, if you send proof your sad life actually exists.
