Narrative:

I recently have completed upgrade training and have been issued a temporary airmen certificate. After flying approximately 10 hours in IOE training, it had been recognized that the airmen's certificate wasn't signed by the examiner. The examiner had typed his name within the appropriate box, in which I had thought was sufficient.
