Very fair, easy going, excellent post flight debrief - really notices a lot of the small stuff and provides good feedback. He tried to make the check-ride as efficient as possible while hitting all of the required items. Also, worked hard to get me into his schedule.

This guy was extremely condescending and rude. I think he intentionally made me nervous. He also gave me a lot of trouble about using a passport as an I.D and said I was making his job difficult. After the flight he told me that I didn't pass during the debrief because I had "become too slow" during a maneuver in the flight portion. Not only does this go against the FAA rules that he is supposed to tell me if I failed right when the deviation occurs, but I thought his reasoning was extremely vague. This DPE is definitely not on your side. I would recommend taking a check with the FSDO inspector instead of this guy. At least it would have been more fair.
