Thanks for all the replies. Yes, my test was at Ardmore.

It's taken me 80 hours for a few reasons, I did about 40 hours before my cpl & ifr theory, then started flying again after that break. Also a combination of things resulted in the test being postponed repeatedly - weather, then the testing officer was sick, then some more weather, etc. My test was booked (after a check with a B cat) at just under 70 hours, as I recall, but because of the postponements I've been doing more flights just to keep in practice.

I went up for a flight today with a B cat and he said I was all good, so hopefully I'll be able to go up again with the testing officer sometime this week to either resit the test or just do some circuits and he can sign me off (my instructor told me it's really up to how the testing officer is feeling on the day.)
