Would recommend

He goes straight through the ACS, textbook style. He wants to see demonstrated understanding of your route and safety parameters, as well as reading info of your destination. Very understanding DPE, was willing to delay for my instructor to arrive as we were the only ones all day. Great enough to wait 2 hours for the storms to pass through to complete flight portion. He loves providing feedback to instructors to help them teach better.
