Instrument Checkride - Practical Test - Full Video

[@selimeylul8292]

This is an incredible resource for those of us continuing training beyond the primary level. Thank you Niko for making this checkride public - especially great to see real-life feedback from the DPE.

[@davejones542]

It takes a lot of courage and also confidence to video your own IR checkride. Good job man.

[@andrewcernicky330]

Also a cool DPE to allow it!

[@videoman876]

I agree. He was well prepared.

[@sS-do1cr]

Passed mine yesterday. I really wanna say thank you for sharing this video. I watched this video more than 5 times a day before checkride, and it was really helpful than other videos or reading materials.Thank you so much!

Congrats

​@@NikosWingshi. What do you think about (dane wigington channel)??? Worrying or not?in your opinion.thanks

[@craigjohnstone1461]

​@@NikosWingswatch-(the dimming).. dont do this on us

[@NikosWings]

I watched part of it. Sounds like a typical conspiracy theorist but the theory that sprayed particles will dim the sun sound like putting out a forest fire with a garden hose, it would take decades with non stop flying fleets across the world to have a tiny impact. Also what US conspiracy theorists always miss is the rest of the world. It’s all very US centric which misses the rest of what other countries do and consider that in other countries most US-born conspiracy theories are not even a thing, but here for some reason we LOVE that stuff

[@XCougar85X]

Wow, watching this 5 years late. I cannot understand how you look this calm, and record it just as casual as you do today. I would likely be stressing my ass off.

[@willieb6993]

My memory of this momentous day was bouncing around over the Arizona desert sans autopilot chasing ndb radials dancing on the rudders to dampen the midday thermals hoping for leniency and appreciation for my meager yet earnest abilities. Circa 1996. Thanks for the memories and as always a great and informative video.

[@BuzntFrog]

"Great Job, congratulations" The feeling when that ticket gets signed :DDD

[@bostonalext]

best feeling ever

[@capceo2744]

Great video! You're lucky the examiner let you off easy when you found yourself on the wrong side of the hold. Failing to stay on the protected side of the hold is usually a "critical failure" in the eyes of most examiners.

[@DownTheRabbit-Hole]

never heard a radial to hold on, only the fix of BUU and "Hold Southwest". Does this imply a 225 radial (southwest) and right turns?

[@NikosWings]

He let me go because I realized it quick admitted and corrected it. He liked that

[@DownTheRabbit-Hole]

Niko's Wings ...Thanks for the video. Question: When ATC gives you a Holding clearance, they will always give a fix (BUU in this case) but sometimes they don't give a radial (like your DFE did not give radial). Does saying "hold Southwest" of BUU imply 225 radial (inbound to fix) and standard right turns?

[@NikosWings]

If they tell you hold Southwest it will either be Southwest side of the way it is depicted, in other words a published hold point or a fix to hold on a Victor way and Southwest would be the side of the fix on the victor way itself. You will never assume the radial. If they are to give you a radial (probably very rare) they will also tell you the side to hold on.

[@NikosWings]

The DPE will be much more forgiving if you are perfectly prepared with your documents and do good in the oral. That was me. Super prepped and fantastic oral. He didn’t want to fail me unless I had seriously screwed up. Good luck with your check ride

[@benc1103]

Nice work. Single pilot, no auto-pilot IFR is the most difficult instrument flying you will do. Be prepared and organized in the cockpit. Ask ATC to clarify any doubts. In sharp contrast, airline flying (it's always flown IFR) is the easiest instrument flying (well equipped jet, crew , dispatch and training make it easy). Gain experience by flying on IFR flight plans in VFR weather until you're really comfortable dealing with ATC and flight plan changes. Only then put your mins at 1000ft. Leave the CAT1 200-1/2 stuff to the jets and you're getting paid to deal with lousy weather. Remember, it's hard to pick a good field to dead stick into when it's a 200 ft ceiling. Same for at night. Single-engine failure scenarios and bad weather and/or night and mountains don't go well together. Always consider: how will this workout if the motor quits?

[@IlIlIlIlIlIlIlIl-v9h]

I felt butterflies just watching this

[@NikosWings]

I get the same feeling every time I watch it too.

[@IlIlIlIlIlIlIlIl-v9h]

I have my ifr checkride on wednesday. any tips?

[@NikosWings]

Hey Tom, practice the profile on the simulator or on the airplane with a pilot friend and if you make a mistake fix it and put it behind you right away and DO NOT let it affect the remainder of the flight. Also take time off and prepare the next couple of days. If the oral goes well the practical will be easy and you will be much more confident. If the examiner asks you about your decision making during oral make sure that your planning does not expose you to the adverse conditions too long. Most DPEs want to see that you are thinking about safety and limiting your exposure to the elements. I hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions.

[@IlIlIlIlIlIlIlIl-v9h]

In terms of referencing materials, notes, or FAA publications to answer questions that the DPE might ask during the oral, how likely is he to allow such materials to be referenced to better answer a question?

[@NikosWings]

You can reference anything you want. Make sure that you tab items so you can easily find them. You don't want to waste too much time searching as not to waste his/her time.

[@abbieamavi]

*thank you SO MUCH for this!! It helps a lot with feeling personally prepared for the checkride, it makes it less suspicious and mysterious to see it in video. :) I'll be starting my IFR flight portion training hopefully this spring 2020, and I'm going through all the IFR videos and yours is one of the best and most helpful!

[@flyingwithrobertjohnston7029]

Whew!!! Time for a Foster’s (or two) and a big medium rare steak at Outback Steakhouse. That was way more involved than my instrument checkride. But back in 99 we had no GPS approaches and my plane had no autopilot or GPS or LORAN. Just needles and steam gauges. The best ILS of my life was the one I flew into KFTW that day. You really did a great job sir and kept your cool and all with camera rolling. Amazing! Excellent job!

[@mmichaeldonavon]

Niko. How sweet was that ride! Wow! You did an amazing job - your check ride was outstanding. I'm in awe and also a bit envious. I passed the written instrument, a hundred years ago, :) but never got the confidence to take the check ride. My 24 months passed, then I was back to block l. You did yours like a "Boss," Thanks for taking us along. I loved it.

I have to say I enjoyed my instrument rating from beginning to an end. It took me 22 months to complete from day 1 to check ride, which was long, but I took my time with and stuck with it to the end.

Hi Niko... Was looking through your earlier videos and came across this important milestone in your aviation career. You are a skilled pilot. I too at one time had nerves of steel but age has filed that tight edge away. Have had a sudden health setback. So my time here with your flights takes me to another dimension. Love focusing on the mental exercise of your flights. Thanks for all your videos. That continue to make my days as a 🐦. Blessings ☺

[@jamesunger8433]

Good check ride. I remember mine too many years ago and my check ride was in a twin Let's just say that it was a very busy check ride and very challenging and very rewarding too..... Ironically too it was actually in IMC probably the bottoms were at about 800 ft so it was entirely in IMC.... I imagine it was rewarding for you as it was me because at the end I breathed a huge sigh relief and saw the instructor next to me and he smiled and I knew I passed... awesome! It's a fantastic achievement.

[@flypilot992]

This is a great video. Im flying out of Skill now. Skip was my flight Instructor back in 1989. He is a pro and I love Skill., You were trained from the best Flight Training facility in the Midwest hands down . Finishing my Instrument then going onto Commercial , and CFI. I would not trust any other Training Facility.

[@multitieredinvestor5246]

Took and passed instrument check ride Dec 1982. Wish we had small video cameras back then. That would have been a great memory. At 2000 MSL I held over the Georgetown, TX NDB. I was then to fly to Waco. Too low to pickup Waco. Examiner said rather loudly”Where are we¿”. I tuned in Austin and went outbound. That was close.

[@NikosWings]

You saved it

[@richskater]

I've watched this video more times than I'm willing to admit. It's really the best video of it's kind on here. That moment when you're all briefed up and got everything set for the approach and he's like "just kidding, forget everything I said and get ready for a hold", ruthless. I'm sure you knew it was coming, but you could tell you were bummed when it happened. Seriously, great video, informative, and never gets old.

Great video. It has popped up in my feed many times, but I never thought of watching it because of how rare it is to record a checkride. Thank you for putting it out there. I'm a few months from my checkride. Crushed the instrument knowledge test (97%), doing well in the SIM with my CFI as she makes sure we lock in the basics on the ground. Will get in the air next week. My biggest concern is being able to quickly interpret the math when directed to hold, intercept a VOR, etc. Seems pretty simple, but the OBS/CDI/HSI seems to rule my brain at times and task saturation can be a problem in my early 50s, but I'm determined to get it done. This was a big help.

very helpful your video and thank you for sharing. I'll take the checkride in one week, I'm very nervous any advice to me ?. And congratulations!!!

[@NikosWings]

+PILOT CHUNGA I hope this reply is on time for your check ride. Here is my advice: 1. Get good sleep the night before 2. Be super prepared with your paperwork. The examiner knows who will fail within 5' of the check ride. Be organized. Take 2 days before your check ride to get organized with your logbook (put tabs to show instrument work) your ID, airplane logs. 3. On the oral think about your options during examination. The examiner is not looking for hero pilots, is looking for pilots that will not expose themselves to severe weather for too long. Always imagine being exposed to the elements the least amount possible on the scenario he/she will give you. 4. On the flying part, take command. You are in charge. Treat them like a passenger that knows nothing. 5. Ask the examiner for help spotting traffic. They are your passenger and your safety pilot. 6. Talk out loud about your actions. It makes the examiner understand your thinking process 7. IMPORTANT: If you make a mistake correct it immediately. NEVER GIVE UP. Keep fighting. 8. If you do make a mistake move past it, put it behind you and STOP thinking about it. That's all I got for you buddy. Best of luck!

There is nothing better to "enhance" or compliment IFR skills and procedures than a flight sim.
