You are confusing what rote defines in a flight test. Rote can be used
to answer to a question as you indicate, OR it can be the way something
is PERFORMED, which is what we are discussing here on this thread.


Where did this occur? We have been discussing the ability to perform the
flight test tasks, true. But we've also been discussing the performance on
the oral part of the test (and the depth of comprehension demonstrated by
said performance).

You yourself wrote in et:

I was finding pilots coming through the
accelerated path who knew the answers mechanically, and could perform in
the airplane mechanically, which met the minimum test standards and made
them safe enough in the air.
I simply wasn't fining the comprehension levels in these pilots that I
was finding in other pilots coming through training paths that allowed a
more relaxed curriculum.

This makes it clear that we - that you - are speaking of both the oral test
and the flight test on this thread.

What we are discussing here has absolutely nothing at all to do with a
verbal answer to a question.


But "a verbal answer to a question" is the fundamental component of the oral
part of the "checkride".
