The one at the Travis AFB testing center looks like it was pulled out of a storage box in someone’s basement from the 1960s. Even when it was “calibrated” it hardly functioned correctly. I’ve heard a wide range of stories about the equipment at testing centers, some better than others.
Allen and dirk-braby

When you took it, do you remember the joystick you used during the exam?
I took the actual TBAS last month. Your experience of it being inverted is the first I’ve heard. @kyle-duffee , it seems like Allen and I had differing experiences. I wasn’t aware it could potentially be inverted. If you know where you plan to take the test, it would probably be best to call and get info. I took my test on a base and the lady…
Did you take the actual test, or just the practice ones? I took the actual test, and it was in fact inverted.
PhillipsInteresting. That was not the case for me
