Before booking a Illinois checkride

Each DPE holds specific FAA authorizations. Private pilot, instrument, commercial, initial CFI, CFII, and ATP tests may require different examiners. Check the exact aircraft category and class, then ask about aircraft requirements, documents, payment, and retest policies.
