I look at a tough BFR as a good thing.


With an experienced instructor it can be, but doing things like working
weight and balance without a calculator is a bit much. And that was just the
beginning.



Oh... Needlessly difficult. G

He wouldn't let you use a calculator?



A real life flight, huh? Jeez, if I need to work a weight and balance, then I
need a calculator. Just like if I need to fly, I need an airplane. Working all
those numbers in my head isn't real life. I'd **** it up for sure.
