Wrote and passed my Cat IV Instructor Written Exam this morning - decent mark, too!
Flight test for my Instructor Rating won't be until sometime in late July, probably. Got a bunch of flying still to do, but the written is a big hurdle!
It's a strange exam, full of precisely-written questions designed to mess with your head. Transport Canada is infamous for the evilness of it's multiple-choice questions, and they seem to pull out all the stops on this one... questions where NONE of the four possible answers really seems right... questions where at least three of the four answers could be correct, depending on how you read the question... questions where you stare blankly at the computer screen and say, "WTF is that supposed to mean, anyway?". It's fun. Really.
Oh, and unlike the FAA over in the States, Transport Canada does not (and probably never will) publish their question bank. No big book of every possible test question for Canucks!
Now I'm off on a beer run.
