This includes an oral exam as well as the actual flying portion. The pilot examiner will have a conversation with you to see if you are completely familiar with the myriad of aviation items. Then, the instructor will take you flying to see if your pilot skills are up to FAA pilot standards. You will have to demonstrate different maneuvers like steep turns, stall recovery, and various takeoffs and landings. The whole thing takes about four hours.
