Fond memories of a no longer checking exSTC

STC
"Right, this is your proficiency check, outside tolerances and you FAIL"
"More than allowable swing for V1 cut and you FAIL"
"Speed plus 5 minus 0 or you FAIL"
"Missed app initiated instantaneously or you FAIL"
"Eng A/I not selected off at after T/O checklist or you FAIL"
"Rudder centered/not centered (can't remember which) for landing or you FAIL"
And so it went on.........

Me
"Umm, sorry to ask but as per vol 7 aren't these repeat items if outside tolerances?"

STC
"Nope, my checking, my way"

I think I counted he used the word FAIL 12 times in the initial brief before the PC.

Happy days
