Pre-takeoff checklist
Happy to say after a year and a half of training I passed my IFR checkride today. WOW what a big weight off my shoulders. I can't say I aced it, in fact I thought I'd blown it at one point getting the needle right at but not exceeding 3/4 scale. I sorta over corrected then re over corrected. I basically muscled it back to center the needle and was waiting to hear..."I'm sorry" but I kept on flying and before I knew it I was on my home RNAV approach setting up for a circle to land. I extended the flaps and I thought "I'm really gonna make it". Once taxied back my Examiner said "well take off your glove so I can shake your hand, you made it" Awesome.
