I don't know about that but it was rehearsed.

What about the wrong answers? Did the actor forget his lines?

Which ones we're wrong?

Maybe the examiner just let them go to not fluster the student?

Some which - Were - wrong? Many of the answers would not have
scored 100% in my test. The T/O and landing distances probably wrong
(you have to factor in wind (and surface) at the strip, not just add
50%). The manifold pressure does change if the engine stops. He was
asked to plan to max. range but he added an extra 1/2 hour reserve?
The VFR reserve does not need to be doubled if you plan _correctly_.
Just 10% extra for contingency should be enough AND where was the
wind allowance in all of this? The altitude has an effect on wind
direction/strength and range as well so he should have mentioned how
he chose his flight altitude not just E-W flight levels. There are
probably more incomplete answers for you to find. He was good on his
paper work but his insight into careful flight planning was a pass but
not 100%.

Just my opinion of course.

Cheers
