Robby, it is best to e-mail the Chief or Assistant Chief pilot for this type of inquiry. They may or may not see this post.

It has been my experience that those who assign the check rides are a little bussy. It took a couple days for my first check ride assignment and then a little longer for my second attempt. Be patient.

Lower visibility plus the approach were more of a challenge in the 757 checkride.

I just did the 757 checkride into PSP the other day... it was a very exciting and trying experience... now I am awaiting the results, but I believe I did fine.
