Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Jimmi, I've said this before, but the DVA examinations are not easy by any means, they are quite challenging (especially taking the time limit into account) to be sure. However, I've been a licensed pilot (real world) since 1995, so I kinda have an unfair advantage. wink

Without my real world background a lot of study and exam re-takes would surly be in order for me! For what it's worth it still took me 39.75 minutes to complete.

Thanks again!
