Tips? Are you nuts? That checkride is top secret sworn to secrecy. That's why it's an outstanding achievement to conquer the Commander checkride. Congratulations Colin on this honorable achievement.David Freeman wrote:Congratulations...quite an achievement. I just realized I'll be ready for the Commander CR soon. I'm sort of looking forward to it, and sort of not. Let me know if you have any tips.

Congratulations, Colin, on this achievement. Your hard work has paid off.
One of my favorite perqs of the Commander rank is not having to end each FREQ at the starting hub (which does not have to be your home hub).
