I echo that, the gouge front has been quiet lately

prep

Would prior pilots that interviewed recommend professional prep? or just prep yourself,study and prepare as hard as you ever had, and just be yourself?

I would hit hard on Aerodynamics for Naval Aviators, then read and re-read the FAA's Instrument Procedures Handbook. After that, brush up on Calculus and Statistics. A nice finishing touch would be to read [SIZE=-1]Dostoevsky's [/SIZE]Crime and Punishment. If you really want to impress them, start quoting Nietzsche.

Why would you want to ask prior pilots? Don't you want current information?

Should have some current info.

Cheers!

I went through in early June, just did my own prep work. A friend, however highly recommended the airinc prep in ATL. He thought it was very beneficial for him. I guess it just depends on you. The current gouge is pretty good, but I expected more ATP type questions and fewer B-707 era mental math questions.

Prep vs non-prep

Guys, paying for a prep is something you have to decide on yourself. If you're comfortable at an interview (telling your life story to strangers, explaining mistakes, celebrating triumphs ...) then there's no reason to waste the cabbage. I made it through the interviews successfully at both DAL and CAL without prepping (I prepped for the CAL sim, that's a must.)

It all depends on how comfortable you are conversing with strangers who will determine your future.

What flight times do people have that are getting calls for interviews? I have 6600TT and 1800PIC, but only 950 PIC turbine. I have three letters of rec and one internal for uncle who I can't use as legacy because it doesn't list uncle. Just curious what it takes to get a call. Do they send out letters for interviews at the start of each month? Thanks for the info.

 

[N311HK]

4000 TT 1800 PIC Turbine. No letters of rec. Total random. Of course I just started at another airline which makes things difficult.

1. Go to Army-Navy store.
2. Buy Eastern Bloc U-Boat Commander uniform.
3. Shave head with rusty Bic.
4. Run garden hose with sprinkler into living room.
5. Run around in aforementioned uniform yelling at your children in a Cold War / Marko Ramius dialect trying to shut all the windows.
6. Once watertightness is assured, rest on couch with a Gitane, a shot of wodka and a few sardines on crackers.
7. (optional) Have wife dance around on coffeetable in smuggled pantyhose and excessive makeup.

That should do it.

Aw, good luck. Just had a friend start there, said the only thing to sweat is the spatial stuf. No real advice here.

When it rains it pours. Focus hard on this opportunity knowing that your new airline is a great safety net regardless. I've heard DAL will be hiring 50 pilots per month for the foreseeable future - lots of growth ahead. Good luck.

I have one coming up too. PM me and I will email you about 30 pages of gouge. Good luck.

Chef - you still with the Blue or did you jump ship?

 

[Bavarian Chef]

Still there. Not looking to leave.

Any one know if they have changed the Technical Test?
