Flight Test

Hi,


Has anyone done there PPL flight test in Dublin within the last year?
It appears to be quite stringent and difficult from what I can make out.
If you have finished the flight test recently, do please tell me how you got on?
What is the format and what where you picked up on with regards to the oral and flying.

For example, first I’m told the max you can divert (mistakenly) from your chosen altitude is 100 ft, then its 200ft, then 150ft? If I go off my calculated heading by 10 degrees for a time do I fail? I’m trying to decipher what is expected of PPL flight test performance.

Some say it’s easy, other say its incredibly difficult. I could study tech met etc for ever, but where does the buck stop?

Cheers for any help.
