Safety
Hi
When I did my test, it was very much nerves.
It went fine and the nice examiner made it clear to me that he was their as a passenger as it were and really was testing me to make sure I was a safe pilot who could carry passengers.
At the end of day its about safe flying and applying your training and knowledge to prove you are safe.
For example the skills test was one long test, I understand it never use to be. So when I was doing my circuits after the nax ex I was tired and my circuits were not the best. I remember turning base too earlier and then not bleeding off enough speed to 70 knots, instead I was doing 80.
However I when I did make mistakes, I advised the examiner of the correct speed. Someone that can recognise their minor mistakes is the safer pilot.
