Mesaba interview written test

[WIPilot]

I've read all of the gouges I can find but I really cant find much information on the mesaba written test. Can anyone here shed some light?

I understand it is 25 questions. Is it pass/fail? or how does the grading go?

Any information would be very appreciated!

If you can't pass it, I dont want to fly with you.

And take the DC-9 sim out of your profile.

If you need gouge, you're not ready for the job.

What these guys are getting at is:

The Mesaba written test is very straight forward. It will not try to trick you. There is nothing esoteric on it. It is more like the instrument rating test than the ATP test. Know your bedrock pt. 91 FAR's and your "should know" AIM material. Know how to read Jepp plates. That's it. It is NOT like the PCL or Compass written tests. There are no BS questions on it. Just typical stuff where if you have your ratings, you really should already know it.

DC-9-30 Sim

Now was that Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 or 2004?

You have to differentiate between the two.

Check out www.aviationinterviews.com

There are A LOT of gouges on there for every airline.. There are even some samples of the types of questions you could expect.

with that being said, XJOHXJ was exactly right, the written is very straight forward.


Good Luck

I disagree!

I'm now flying for the regional, but when I was in going through the interview process, I needed the gouge just like this chap.

Needing help with testing info has nothing to do with someone’s ability to learn and flight skills.

If you're so terribly misinformed and have nothing to give but sarcasm, I suggest you don't post anything at all!

I crashed a Hawker sim once :-(

There is gouge and then there is gouge. Gouge is a heads-up on what to prep for and what to expect, gouge is unearned insider information about the items to prep for -- in other words, crib-notes.

Don't get me wrong, gouge works great in training, but if you need gouge to get through an interview, then you better brush up on the skills.

But it just sounds to me like you are looking for gouge only, not what the answers are.

Good luck!

I threw up in a sim once -- but I had the flu though so it was okay.
