It doesn't surprise me that the Sim is a little more challenging than normal as the approaches flown will be at smaller airports, lots of proceedural Non-precision I would think. And with smaller aircraft and limited to an extent diversion airports safety is paramount.
I'll make sure I book some hours in Dundee if I'm lucky enough to get an assessment day.
I wouldn't like to completely dismiss the written part, I imagine if they were border line to giving me the job that is something that could sway the tide. Do you remember anything about the written tests? Whats sort of numeracy questions were they? I would imagine reading from performance charts? Working out descent mileage etc?
I remember roughly logic sequences (eg. complete numbers series), images (like the cube unfolded / folded), and math (calculation about proportion, eg.3 guys own an activity, according to this ratio 5:3:2. How much should the first guy receive from the others, in order to have the same share for everyone.)
Do not expect to finish it, it's almost impossible, and I know few guys there, nobody finished it.
So there's no reason to rush, or to be afraid about.
