13 Ways To Impress Your Designated Pilot Examiner On Private Pilot Checkride

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Most students typically aim to just passing their checkrides and getting it over with. Imagine this, what if you impress your DPE instead? DPEs are usually well connected professionals that have been in the aviation industry for a long period of time. They may be the person you needed to propel yourself to the airlines.
Join Liz Brassaw (Chief Flight Instructor) and Megan Lindholm (Assistant Chief Flight Instructor) as they discuss skills and scenarios that will get your DPE to furrow his eyebrows in awe.

    Make a good impression by quoting bad boys before take off. "We fly together we die together"

    Disagree with going above and beyond in you’re oral test responses as that will just dig you into a deeper hole only respond to the question if the dpe wants more then they will ask

    Thanks so much for this, I have my PPL check-ride tomorrow and you touched on some things I haven't done or gone over in a while. So I know what I'll be looking over today. Great information and wish my CFI went over in depth like this with me to prepare.

    The DPE at our school comes in shorts and a terrible tie-shirt. PS, you cannot use reference materials in your check-ride. You need to have it all by memory. You cannot even look it up in the FAR-AIM. Of course you need to know the flight rules, VFR rules, airspace and so on. But you also need to know all the other information.

    The Rudder is important. I do not just want to barely pass. I need to know it cold. It's about safety. I will be taking my friends or family. I have to trust my self first. I am a student pilot and I need more practice and want to have it nailed.

    I disagree with going above and beyond on check-ride. You can dig yourself some major holes that the DPE will exploit.

    Agree, and they do not care how you dress. It is 95 to 100 degrees out here in Southern California. We have DA at 3000 at sea level.

    What do you think about saying too much trying to impress your DPE getting you into trouble by saying too much vs just answering the questions you are asked? I have heard many people in videos say that trying to elaborate too much for the DPE. Do you think that’s a real thing?

    I 100% promise I won't be offering up too much information. That was a trick we always used during oral qualification boards on a ship. Ask an open ended question, and try to get the examinee to dig themselves into a hole.

    Is a DPE different from your CFI during your time in their school? It's a completely different person?

    Yes. You have to hire the dpe yourself. Your instructor will help you with this, but the dpe will not be associated with your school in any way.

    Nope, YOU CAN NOT LOOK UP INFORMATION. You need to know it all by memory. My FAR-AIM looks like a car ran over it. I have several tabs and can find everything quickly. As far as the left turning tendencies you better know all 4 of them by memory. No looking it up.
