General Discussion / Re: Why flying your airplane well is the most important part of a successful FNO

If I had a nickel for every time someone reported severe turbulence and loss of speed or altitude control, and I calmly replied, "roger, when able maintain 7,000 feet, 210 knots" last Friday night, I could probably buy a grande venti (whatever their extra large is) Starbucks coffee. 
Flown through that (VATSIM and RW) and it ain't fun; glad there wasn't much turbulence in my chair in front of a radar scope the other night.

True testament to Cessna aircraft. The Boeing had to be modified, but the Cessna was just fine as-designed, as-built!

And, just in case you were not aware, the exam is only for student controllers. There is currently no test required for you to fly on the network.
