in TX

Good topic !!

This guy somewhere in TX (donīt want to give any details on locatons because itīll be obvious who I am talking about).

He was so mean he would conduct 14 hour ground exams.

I recall this girl taking a checkride with him and after 12 hours of ground he failed her because she forgot 1 of the 3 most common methods of figuring out TAS. She told him about the dial in your a/s indicator, where you plot PA against OAT and read values at the needle. She told him about the 2% of the indicated per 1000 feet and she forgot to tell him that she could use her flight computer to figure her TAS out. It was a CFII checkride. Word is that he would do flight tests so long that they had to be interrupted to REFUEL !!!!
