Can You Pass This Instrument Checkride?

In this mock instrument checkride, we sit down with a student flying an Ercoupe equipped with a Garmin 430 (non-WAAS). This video dives deep into the challenges of flying older avionics under IFR, from maintaining situational awareness to understanding GPS limitations, RAIM failures, and approach downgrades. You’ll hear real checkride-style questions and answers covering IFR currency, system knowledge, and how to stay proficient—plus honest feedback on what went well and what still needs polish. If you’re preparing for your instrument rating, this mock checkride gives a clear look at how an examiner thinks, how to explain your reasoning, and what a solid oral looks like in the real world.
