The unexpected

Interesting reading the thread change (not that i'm complaining, its an interesting one!!) I suppose you cannot prepare for all eventualities, but I guess PFLs, glide and flapless circuits all prepare the pilot for the USUAL emergencies.

On the emergency front I have so far also covered the Emergency break and later on i'm promised maximum rate turns. But on a Skills Test, I would hope that the examiner does not throw something really unexpected at the student? Any examiners out there want to assure me that they wouldn't for a Skills Test??

Thing - Fly back to the airfield and stooge around - .....don't know about yours, but if I stooged around in our MATZ just burning fuel, I think the Tower may have something to say...especially if there is a fast jet or slightly nutty King Air pilot in the vicinity...
