This is a photo of the old airway beacon on the bluff above Holman Field in Saint Paul MN. It marked the end of the route from Chicago to St. Paul. Downtown St. Paul is to the right of the beacon in this view and in the distance is Minneapolis.

Well I finally passed the checkride. I actually had some fun on this one though it was challenging. The stack near Casa Grande AZ is always a joy. And no, it was nowhere even close to 3 hours of flight training. Much much more. I can say I more instrument proficient than I have ever been.

Sorry I just saw this. I don't have experience with any of those AMEs in particular. If you send me links to their websites, I can try and provide some feedback. Also if you are willing to provide a bit more background on the problem, it will be easier to make recommendations.
