Today was day number three which I had to cancel my check ride flight due to weather. Mostly associated with tropical storm Alberto. I'm seriously hoping tomorrow is much better. This is starting to get annoying.

Yesterday I was scheduled for my actual step three check ride. However due to weather it was only partially completed. I completed the oral exam with a score of 95/100. Lots of questions about the systems of the aircraft, aerodynamics, and performance.

Due to the weather associated with tropical storm Alberto, I don't think I'll be able to do the flying portion today either. Even though it's far from us, we're getting low clouds, and rain. Which isn't the best for visual flying.

Hopefully by today, or tomorrow, the weather will clear, and I can finish this thing.

Well today I completed my step three mock check ride. Basically this flight was exactly what my check ride will be like, but was done with my regular instructor. In this flight we did all the items I'm required to perform. Everything went really smooth, and I'm feeling really comfortable with everything.

Now the waiting game comes. Due to the shortage of check airmen here, I will probably wait about a week for the check ride. Which means a lot of time to study, but a lot of time to get rusty with flight maneuvers.

Once I have complete this, I will be a Private pilot airplane single engine land and sea, multi engine land.

I have taken, and passed my Instrument Airplane written exam.

It was pretty rough. Couple of questions I haven't seen, and some very difficult ones. It took me about an hour to complete the test and I finished with an 83%

I'm glad it's over, now I can focus on completing my multi-engine add on.
