Mine wasn't that big of a deal. The oral was a little more extensive than
the instrument rating, but I expected that. I think he expected a little
more accuracy, too. He especially likes NDB approaches, so we did 2 of
those, one in 30 kt direct crosswind... that was a little tough. He had me
"teach" unusual attitudes and a missed approach procedure. The test was
surprisingly simple, actually. By the way, I had an FAA examiner, not a DE,
and I did it in a JetRanger helicopter.
