AMEN ! I retired 2 years ago after 28 years... AND I actually TAUGHT R/T once upon a time. Believe me, my entire mission while instructing was to try and take the dreaded stress out of it and make it more fun, which I actually succeeded in doing for a short period of time. After I stopped instructing and flew full time again, I experienced the same old demons myself. I think it's just one of those things that has been drilled in all of us to "perform perfectly" since Initial Training. I always made a perfect score, but until I saw the 100 on my test, my insides turned over and over. And no, unless your spouse is "in the business" they will NEVER GET IT ! Go to your base the night before, have some wine, relax, call home only if you have to and read over your study guide while sipping a fine chardonnay..... always worked for me!
