Reason it wasn't a pink slip
I need to clarify something...
When I say T-storms were approaching the area, I mean they had a little while to go before hitting the airport. About 1 hour. We were never in a position of danger.
In the not-so-exact words of the examiner, we would've been about halfway through the flying portion and would've had to wait it out until we could return.
I believe the examiner was just trying to save me money by not having me fly unnecessarily.
But I'm sure there are examiners who would find some little excuse to dole out a pink slip. It would've been questionable if my examiner had chosen to give me a pink slip.
I guess I'll provide the old addage: "You had to be there."
