About Charlie Romeo Aviation DPE Service

Our Approach

  Every check ride carries inherent stress. Despite this, we strive to conduct a thorough, safe, and precise pilot examination while minimizing the stress for the individual being assessed.  

Our Approach

   There are no regulations stipulating that pilot examination must be torturous. Each check ride can be an enjoyable experience. If you’re well-prepared, skilled, mature, and exercise sound judgment, the check ride should be anything but torture.

Testing Site

I prefer to test at Fort Smith Municipal Airport (KFSM), Signature Air Support.

I have an office there for use during the ground portion. 

We have white board and projectors to use for CFI evaluation

In some cases, I can travel to your location.

There is a travel fee assessed for travel. It is based on the price of the aircraft and the expense to travel to and from your site. 

The site must have easy access to a computer, internet, and  printer.  Traveling to a nearby location or hanger will not be acceptable.

Typically, the travel fee is based on $250/hr. flight time plus half the fuel charge. 

Any  incidental or required lodging fees will also be included in the travel fee. 

Contact Us

When your IACRA is completed, submit a request.

This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.

I WILL NOT book an appointment until endorsed and IACRA completed.

  

Appointment dates are limited due to the  high demand for examiners. That is why I book only applicants that are ready to test.

Variables like weather, mechanical issues, illness, and life can interfere with test dates. If we schedule and the appointment must be canceled, I will try to book you at the first opening to follow.

Since a great many of my responses to inquires end up in junk or spam mail folder, check your junk or spam folder if you don't receive a reply in 48 hours.
