Questions on 30Q exam where as best as I remember:

Shortest Distance = Great Circle
Deviation = (cant remember exact question but in relation to compass card deviation) so Heading!
Merridian = max at equator
Venturi = Subsonic = Pressure decrease Velocity Increase
Wet runway = is less than 3mm
CAS is IAS corrected for position and instrument error
EAS is CAS correcter for compressibility
High Pressure in northern hemisphere is clockwise
Transistion point on aerofoil is point where laminar flow turns turbulent
Swept / straight with same AoA, straight has more lift
Flying pressure 998 if you set 989 your altimeter will overread
Stable aircraft displaced will return to trimmed state
a/c 30degree bank load factor will increase by 15% (this is not the answer thou) beware the decrease by 15%!
Level flight more camber has more lift
A/C slowes down induced drag? Increases
A/C Speeds up level flight? Form drag increases
Dihedral provides greater lateral stability
Drag line is parallel to the longitudinal axis
up slope runway will increase distance required
Clouds form from air being lifted to saturation point

human resources interview
standard questions

tech interview
model of 747
walk around, why swept wings? why engin below wing?
what happens if speed increases in cruise (failure of auto thrust)?
shown synoptic of asia, had to point out typhoon, tell where it was going, describe an approach and what would happen should we be landing where it is?
GPWS inputs? EGPWS/GPWS differences?

thats about all i can remember
