Budd's C-182 pilot

[Lost Lake]

interviewed a year ago... didn't make it (oh well)

I didn't fly the way he liked and after three circuits it was c'ya... (had zero previous time in C182) I could go on and on about what they nit picked about but it would sound like sour grapes. All I will say is I would not recommend a student for flight test if they flew the way the interviewer wanted me to in those conditions on that day.

Let me guess, low flying, gusty cross winds, short tight circuits. What, no papis or center line runway lights? Sounds like a normal bush job. I'd hang in for Jazz if I were you.

Actually I am used to low tight circuits... done plenty of them in those conditions. It does not take a genius to fly one. My judgment was using on flap usage and the interviewer completely disagreed. Like I said oh well.
