Whats the gouge on the interview? I know it will probably be the standard stuff but a little inside info never hurt and it helps qualm my fears.

 

[Flechas]

It's not bad. They asked me HR questions, about my students, the kind of instructing i had been doing (they love active CFIs), tell me about yourself, what do you want from us, a get to know you kind of deal. For that part just be honest and be yourself. After that they asked me stuff on the Jepps, both approach plates and low altitude. Then i had to fly a couple approaches on a PC simuator, and also a holding, not to bad, just be up to speed on your scan.
Pretty good interview and a great group of people, PM if you have any questions.

What are "guide lights"? I did a partial phone interview (had to be cut short) and was asked that question. I have never heard of guide lights in my flying experience or in studying for the ATP written. Did I hear the question wrong?

135 minimums

I was checking out the minimums listed on the AirNow website today. They just say that they want 135 IFR minimums. Is this because they are a single-pilot operation? If so, is there any kind of rt seat program there?

I'm pretty sure the question was on guard lights. They are installed at some airports at runway / taxiway intersections. Either flashing yellow lights on each side of the taxiway, or accross the taxiway in the pavement. See AIM 2-1-9 d

Thanks. I think you are right. Maybe there was a New England displacement of the "r" that threw me off.

Yes, I agree. He speaks from a pinnacle of mere perfect ignorance as far as I am concerned! "Single engine work" had absolutely nothing to do with the accident at Jefferson City, MO.

Also, I worked for Business Airfreight for almost two years and am qualified as anyone to say that NOBODY finished their runs single-engine! If you had an engine failure enroute, you diverted immediately to the nearest suitable airport. I would go so far to say that "Icefreigtdawg's" entire post is complete balderdash and is not representative of my time flying night freight in upstate NY for two different companies over a 4 year time frame.

I can just see this guy in the pilots lounge at Prior Aviation, Buffalo. "There I was, in severe clear icing, single engine, shooting an ILS down to 600 RVR at max. landing weight........"

I have done that. But when I did I was upside down on fire with two Japs behind me :uzi: and…... I did not even drop my crack pipe.

Accusing me of lying? U wanna talk to the firefighters? Everything but the ice, I don't recall it being cold enough for ice... And my experience IS representative of flying night freight for two companies in the NY area, so balderdash it aint. I was trying to point out at that the air now and other guys are good sh*t and know what they're doing. Cokie, did you fly for Island?
