To whoever is grading the test I just submitted. Don't take it too seriously, I'm not special, just slow. That time limit came up quicker than anticipated. Will work faster next time....

I wouldn't worry about it Denny. The test probably doesn't even say how long it took you. As long as you made it under the time you're good. "Slow and steady wins the race..." - Some turtle

Nope, what I'm sayin' is that it cut me off and submitted it when I was a third of the way through...
Wasn't a very bright turtle...

im pretty sure the tests are automatically graded so u might end up getting the questions u didnt do wrong which means you can retake it in 24 hours.
Good Luck Denny!

Denny,
There are no issues with the Captain exam as submitted. It did time out and was submitted by the system. You will be able to sit for the exam 24 hours after the exam was submitted.
Good luck the next time around!

Denny,
Be sure to study. Not just the aircraft you are qualifying with, but the flying and pilot's manual. You should be able to answer the questions more quickly with this knowledge.

All anyone can ask from you Denny is that you gave it your best effort. Study up a bit on the 757 manual and flight encyclopedia and you should do fine next time around. Good luck!

| I do great on the 757 Captain's test till I get to the part about Atlantic Flights, and a couple of questions with the maps, which my computer will not let me open for some reason or other. I still fly the 757 and enjoy it, so don't feel bad about not passing the test.

Denny, I have taken the test several time and wan't ready hence i failed, I took the test again the other day, stilled failed again as I look after my 91 yr old mom and she doesn't like me at my computer. she wants this , that, and the other thing anything to get my away from my computer. Ican sleep in my room, fix food in the kitchen watch t.v. all day , even read a book. but let me sit down in front of my computer. she demands my undivided attention lol lol
