AK.
Interviews are a fairly relaxed process (or at least they were!!!), with no more than 3 or 4 general ATPL theory type questions, usually something vaguely relevant to flying as opposed to the obscure questions posed by the JAA. Nothing specific to the Dash, more likely a general turboprop PofF question.

Brush up on weather and aerodynamics.

Sim check is a doddle, and I suspect only a very small percentage fail. Profile is usually climb straight ahead, level off, turn onto a heading, track into and away from a VOR, radar vectors to an ILS to land. All hand flown, all very simple - no nasty tricks or traps.
