Norwegian term or phrase: Utsjekk
Unsure how to translate utsjekk in the sense of a final exam for a pilot/drone operator.
See: https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utsjekk

Anybody know if there is an equivalent English term?

checkride
Explanation:
Seems to work for drones, fixed-wing and helicopter pilotage.

Coincidentally, my Irish office manager from Dublin had a pilot's licence for fixed-wing as a prerequisite for his first 'solo flight' as a commercial helicopter pilot in California, the USA.
