The League of Temporary Airmen

[Rgbeard]

This exclusive club now includes me. I passed Commercial today, using the Turbo Lance.

Glad this is in the books!!!

Thanks to @RyanB and @Ted for their support and challenge!

And, of course, @Pilawt for the countless rambling, moaning, groaning that he had to endure out of me. And, that without his connections and contacts, I would still be wandering looking for a DPE in today’s environment.

Easy-peasy, lemon-squeezy!!

By which you mean you could've squeezed a lemon with your butt cheeks, because your plane hangs in the air in much the same way cinder blocks do when you close the throttle?

Like playing frisbee with a manhole cover!

The secret to the power off 180 is manipulating the flaps to hit your target. Works shockingly well!

Sleep well instead of worrying about the checkride!

In a Lance, the secret is to be really close on downwind,

Welcome to the club.

In the overall scheme of things, aren't we all "temporary"?

 

[geezer]

Congratulations!

My check ride was an Arrow, told the DPE not to expect 3 green lights until we crossed the fence. No flaps used.
