Eliacim, et. al., Perhaps the DPE browsed the logbook or questioned the applicant and found there was training in a 3-control airplane that covered the necessary skills.
Especially so if the CFI signed the student off for solo flight in the three axis plane and multiply so if there is crosswind training and slip training logged in the three axis plane. The DPE might have felt confident in not imposing a restriction - especially if the applicant flew a skillful check ride. Perhaps there was that record or perhaps the DPE discussed those issues with the applicant and found the understanding of the skills was excellent. Or, perhaps, the DPE just made a mistake. So, take it and run with it and GET INSTRUCTION when you next check out a 3-control plane. (I will. It's been long enough for me I'll certainly want refresher training on those skills.) Suspenders, belt and a piece of rope in your pocket! Ed
