If you are interested in contacting me, the best way is to either send an email or text, and I will do my best to respond within 1 business day. If you wish to schedule a check ride, please read the scheduling page and complete the pre-appointment form. I will review the form, and respond with an available date. You are not confirmed unless you hear back from me and we agree on a date. Your scenario for the check ride will be assigned at that time.

• I don’t ask trick questions.

• I treat everyone with respect.

• I follow the Airman Certification Standards (ACS) and Practical Test Standards (PTS) to the letter.

• I don’t expect perfection; I do expect sound Aeronautical Decision Making and good judgement

• I give my undivided attention during practical tests.

• I love what I do and try to keep the mood light.

Although my role is to evaluate, it’s important for you to know that I want you to succeed! I consider it a privilege and honor to be in the position to administer your FAA practical test, and a successful outcome makes it all the better.

It’s my sincere desire that your check ride is a positive experience for you. If you meet or exceed the Airman Certification Standards, it will be my pleasure to award you a fresh Temporary Airman Certificate at the conclusion of your practical test.
