recently did the SO final interview. some tough questions i got included:

*microburst - what is it, where could you expect to encounter them, how to get out of them in a big jet?

*what's a monsoon, what are the season?

*typhoons - how do they form, what type of conditions necesarry, what happens when they move over land?

*what's the difference between the fly-by-wire technology between the 777 and airbus, with the autopilot on?

was asked lots of questions about the operation i am currently flying for. in the initial interview there were lots of questions about the 747-400 - fuel system, winglets, brakes, differences between the 300 & 400, etc....

hope that helps a bit
