What We Know So Far

We currently have a single IFR checkride report on file for Travis Alkire. The report was filed on April 30, 2026, and does not specify a pass/fail outcome. Because the gouge contains limited detail, we don't yet have enough data to break down his oral emphasis, common questions, flight portion focus, or examiner style with confidence.

If you've flown with Travis Alkire, your gouge would make a real difference here — submit a report on GougeHub to help fellow pilots preparing for their ride.

Bottom Line

  • This is an early-stage profile. One IFR report is on file, but substantive details about topics, questions, and flight standards are not yet available.
  • Check back as more pilots file their experiences — profiles get significantly more useful after 3–5 gouges.

Travis Alkire has a fresh IFR gouge on file — one of the first reports for this DPE. If you're scheduled with him for an instrument checkride, you'll want to see what the early data shows about his style and focus areas before you fly.
