Private Checkride Scenario 119
(If the checkride shown changes after you have started planning you may use the original you started) – Make a Copy!!
PRIVATE SCENARIO (4-Seater). (Two-seat version: no backseat passenger and luggage at 35 lbs).
You and your examiner have an excellent opportunity to visit First Flight (KFFA) where it all began with Wilbur and Orville at Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina.
We will spend a few hours so we need to get there by early in the afternoon say by 1 pm if possible and leave well before dark.
There are no runway lights and no fuel on the field so plan accordingly.
One of your friends also wants to go and is willing to pay his fair share.
Please use FAA Weather Sources published on the day of the checkride.
Plan your flight accordingly
(your weight)
-Your examiner weighs 170 pounds
-Backseat friend weighs 180 pounds
-55 pounds of luggage..we will return that night if possible but we are bringing a change of clothes and our toothbrush just in case.
UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED BY EXAMINER, THE DEPARTURE AIRPORT FOR THIS SCENARIO IS THE AIRPORT WHERE THE CHECKRIDE IS CONDUCTED .
Please do a complete flight plan with weight and balance plus performance measurements for both take-off and landing distances.
Please use only a VFR sectional with checkpoints shown (a point) on the sectional. The first few checkpoints can be a little closer say 10 to 15 nm.
We will discuss on the day we meet.
Questions?
See you soon.
