C1 exam at LROP on Saturday 17

<< < (2/2)

EHM-2029 Sotiris:
After a completer PC blue screen and 3 flights in total the xams were over.
I also spoke to Andrei's examiner and he confirmed a passing score for Andrei so, well done!

EHM-2097 Andrei:
José, Sotiris,

Thanks a lot, your participation surely helped.

Passed the exam indeed, after we had serious "logistics" problems too. The originally scheduled examiner (RO-DIR) had severe PC problems, which left one examinator (RO-AOAC) with two exams.

Besides, a lot of local RO division members could not show up so traffic was scarce (unlike the previous exams in the division). Thus it was a relief to see you both coming in.

And this is why, as soon as I had the minimum required traffic, the examiner had us (TWR + APP) change places and proceed with the second exam (which may have appeared rather strange to you).

The sad+funny part was that as soon as both exams were over, there was a lot of incoming traffic...

Sooo... the outcome was ok though the exam itself was not a remarkable achievement, I hardly had several aircraft to talk to at the same time (and I still did some minor mistakes, oops). My official training one week earlier has been WAY more challenging.

And Sotiris, I think you have been a victim of the new scenery, sorry for your PC crash. I had the same once in a foreign airport, crashed in the second I would have reported airborne, and I had to start all over again. But I must admit it's more frustrating to have this happen after a successful landing as was your case.

To end it in a funny note, the most difficult thing in talking to you guys was to say your callsign, that is "Harmony" followed by another number than my own :) .

Thanks again
Andrei

Lol! ;D I have the same when controling in UK airspace ;)

EHM-2168 Vaz:
Congratulations Andrei! I hope to be on your next too :) Sorry for some problems on approach, I was using FSnav and no charts, so could not understand where I was going with the vectors :)
Cheers

José Vaz

EHM-1883 Matt:
Well done Avat!

I too get mixed up with our callsigns!

Worst case (in an event where I was REALLY tired after controlling for 4 hours) there was a BAW landing, and I said

"EHM1883, you are cleared to land on runway echo"

He replied

"Huh?!?"
