  1. Happy New Year and greetings from Norway!

    Any intel on when/if new interviews will be conducted? Sent an email to all contacts listed on this blog, containing an application and CV. Any hope for a CPL IR ME-SE 311 hours, 23 years old you think? I do have a CFII and a CFI but 5 months waiting for a Social security number in the US meant I never got to work before my visa expired.

    Blue skies and tailwinds to you guys!

  2. Hi mate

    Yeah I should think you are in with a chance with that kind of experience. Be patient as it sometimes takes a long time for HR to get back to all the applicants.

    Good luck!

  3. Hi there.

    Thanks for this excellent and very useful blog.

    I am looking for more details on the sim session during the interview. Is it typically the same scenario or does it vary? Could you please share the scenario you had (procedures, approaches, etc)?

    Thanks!

  4. Hi Andreas

    Usually the sim check is performed on either the C172 G1000 or the generic Piper Arrow simulator.

    Expect an instrument departure, a return to join the hold and then a VOR approach followed by an ILS. Sometimes they make you do a DME arc on to the ILS so just make sure you remember how to do this.

    Hope it helps

  5. DME arcs. Gotta love them. Twist and turn. Twist and turn. Have done more than I care to remember, in the sim and in the plane.

    Thanks very much for the reply Frederik. Very helpful. Hope I get the C172 G1000 if I get that far. Would feel just like "home".

  6. Thanks for the reply buddy, I just hope they get back to me like... ever. Sent the first application in November, and again in early Jan. No reply. Is there still a tendency of utter chaos within HR?
