I love the Staggerwing!! I'm not old. At least... I don't feel old. I'm 31.

Nope!

I agree. A "very senior" (i.e. the oldest, crustiest instructor you can find) might have a different perspective that could unlock the mystery for you. Keep at it.

What would you describe is your biggest problem? Are you pulling up too much and ballooning? Are you landing flat?

Luscombe on looks for me...

Very sad to hear this, and I'm sorry you had to witness it first-hand.

Nice job! I missed an ADF question on mine too.

Thanks, yes...another cheesehead! Although I'm moving down south in a few weeks. I'm going to try and escape the winter and all that. :rolleyes: I'm out of Morey, C29.

Thanks everyone!

FWIW, I scored 95% on my knowledge test and my oral was not what I would consider light, at almost 2 hours.

Agree, I think Stick and Rudder should be required reading...

as I'm sure you're realizing based on this thread, it seems there is no one answer. My CFI just gave me the DPE's contact information and had me schedule when the time came. If I were in your shoes, I'd make a call to your instructor... it's frustrating just sitting around waiting to schedule...

Ain't that the truth!

thanks! I checked my logbook...finished just over 52 hours.

thanks everyone!
