So after such a long deployment, how many aircraft on deck would be just hangar queens now?

AME Defrauding me?
I’ll make it quick. I’m a 121 guy, never had a history of high blood pressure, usually around 120/75-80, very normal. I go to new AME for sake of scheduling convenience. This guys INTERN tells me I have 160/110, takes it again 158/102, tells me to come back next day, 155/110. Says go to doctor, I panick and I go to the doctor, they take it, 127/72, 123/75, they send the record to the AME office saying it’s normal and no prescription is needed, and also told me the others were probably using too small of a cuff. My AME says they need to recheck me before they issue the medical. Am I being defrauded by my AME? If they claim it’s high again, I believe I will wrongfully be deferred and I’ll not be flying for months.
What do I do?
Yes I will never be seeing this AME again, ever.
EDIT - first red flag was the actual AME never did anything, just stopped in at the end. The interns or whatever they are did everything, including what I am now realizing improperly taking blood pressure.

In the movie "Marty Supreme" which is set in 1952 characters fly from New York City to Tokyo in a privately owned DC-3. How long would this usually take, and what would the route be?

Long PPL checkride
I passed my marathon, 12-hour ppl checkride last night. The DPE’s reputation for long checkrides preceded him, but as I’d gotten a decent score on my written and had really hit the books over the last month, I pictured maybe a 9-5 time frame. That was the length of the hitherto longest checkride, I’d been told.
Even though I answered his questions well and he didn’t feel compelled to drill down on anything, he kept going and going. To have to go fly and be observed by a total stoic who has the power to fail me after all that, felt like cruel and unusual punishment.
I passed, but HOLY MOLY was I gassed.
