I just took the 727 check ride and let me tell you now that is a real pilots plane, however to my point. What is the worse you have ever done on a checkride??? I'll go first albeit this was about a year ago when I was going for my captins bars......I did the checkride and nailed it I mean stuck it to a tee......and forgot to tun on acars. Whats your story???
