Pre-takeoff checklist
When getting signed off for a checkride, can a pilot choose who they go to for the oral/checkride (whether it be for private, instrument, or commercial etc.), or must it be the examiner of the instructor's choosing?
A nearby airport recently purchased a C150 for rent that is equipped with GPS, so this is possibly the aircraft in which I'll do my instrument training. However, some FBOs don't allow flight instruction unless it's from one of their instructors. I'm fine with one of their instructors training me, but there's a DPE in the area that is infamous for extremely long, arduous checkrides and also for yelling at the examinee during flight. So if they plan on sending me to him, do I have the right to ask for another DPE?
