"Great DPE. Great personality and overall great ride"

"Bruce Allen ws a great DPE. However, there were sometimes in my Commercial Multi Engine Add On Checkride in which he did not agree with certain checklist procedures that my flight school taught me (ATP Flight School). At that moment I was very nervous that I would get a notice of disapproval over something that I was taught. Other than that, he was a fine DPE! A little intimidating at the beginning of the checkride but very friendly by the end."

"I used Bruce for my CFII checkride and have sent many other students to him for various checkrides. Bruce makes you feel relaxed from the moment he meets you and also shares real world examples that make the checkride enjoyable. Bruce is a fair examiner and wants to see you succeed. I recommend Bruce as a DPE and anyone who has the chance to take a checkride with him will enjoy the experience and will probably learn something in the process."

"Bruce was very professional, respectful, and fair. Went above and beyond to accommodate us."

"Bruce is a very fair and very kind DPE and teacher. Come prepared and be ready to perform and you will do just fine. Bruce is great."

"Had a great check ride with Bruce. Fair and professional. Would recommend to anyone. "

"Mr. Allen, was a wonderful DPE. Thorough, but isn’t expecting perfection. We can’t always know everything to aviation, but we can try. He understands that and wants to see pilots grow to their full potential. If you are a safe and competent pilot mr. Allen is a great DPE. Very professional, but also is very welcoming."

"I can’t say enough great things about Bruce, highly professional, courteous and communicative."

"I had Bruce for two of my check rise and I have nothing but good things to say about him. Very fair examiner, and would recommend to anybody."

"He is great. Very fair and wants you to do well."

"I had the pleasure of taking my commercial single engine check ride with him, and it was fantastic! Everything was planned well easy going made the environment relaxed for such a stressful job. Even recommended some friends who also took check rides with him and had the same experience."

"Mr. Allen is very professional, fair, and welcoming!"
