You should not be nervous of 421C very nice informed guy I have not done a Bi Annual for years as keeping a current annual type rating negates the need for the Bi Annual.
But I do renew my JAA multi and its always good to go into any flight test with the thought of getting the max out of it.
The better the instructor/examiner the better and more you learn from the experience. We need to be pushed and challenged.
I always remember being checked out for a Citation position as then a co pilot.
The check pilot on the trip was an ex squadron leader. On meeting him he appeared to be a total pussycat and I got into the aircraft with absolute confidence.
My God what a change! The Guy was a total Rottweiller, very precise very demanding and by the end of the flight I felt I knew nothing.
I was about to thank him for the experience and slink off tail between my legs when he commented no you were fine.

So dont go by appearances only attitude! Yours
Surely 421C is not that fear invoking? Is he?
