bosher,
It is a shame that the judgement is being made by the guys who get paid by the exam, isn't it?
If you seek a second opinion, take mine = with 6,000 hours you know the sky, the nav and the basic rules. Convince me you know the few differences and I am happy. I will give you an ATPL(A) endorsement valid for airline operations in Lapposland after a few successful beers and a few successful questions! If you have a nice female friend, the questions are optional....
