you have to be able to do a visual circuit after the single engine go around at the final stop airfield. Well that's what I got.... and I was about 45knts xwind in the hold. The first airfield was below IFR mins with RVR of 300m. In fact it was chosen because the examiner reckoned we won't have any problems getting an approach in there. He was right.. no traffic at all, into the hold, outbound round the procedure go around at NDB mins engine failure and head back. After stalling and all that stuff straight in on a radar vectored approach go-around and clear circuit to land.

I had heard that cavok low wind days were the worst for tests. Every tom dick and harry is up getting your way.
