Instrument Check Ride Write Up

[Trogdor]

So this is where the DPE and I kinda disagree.
He was really surprised that I didn't know what NW KRAFT stood for.
It is the acronym for what you need to know before the flight
NOTAMS
Weather
Known delays
Runway Lengths
Alternates
Fuel requirements
Takeoff and Landing Distances

My issue was I knew all of that stuff and provided it for my XC prep I just didn't know the acronym.
I don't use acronyms. I use the memory palace method of memorizing things so I have no idea what tomato flames stands for but I can tell you what I need for VFR flight.

Weird that he was concerned about the acronym but oh well.

My IFR check ride is I think in two weeks (hopefully). That’s 91.103 I believe (did not look it up).

Congrats! I just got my IR ticket last year and it has made me a much better pilot. Well done!
