My CX Cadet Stage 1b Experience
Hi, I just had my 1b interview/JKI test a couple days ago and just wanted to share the experience a little bit for anyone with the interview coming up.
I have 0 flying hours and applied back in August 09. For the JKI Test, learning the JKI booklet inside out only gives you enough knowledge to answer about 80% of the questions. I would recommend some further reading on weather and CX.
Questions asked:
Personal
Why do you want to be a pilot?
What skills do you think you have to become a good pilot?
What do your parents/loved ones think about you becoming a pilot?
What technical experience do you have to prove you can handle a plane?
Why did you choose your degree choice? Did you enjoy it?
Why do you have no flying hours?
What is your favourite plane?
Technical/CX
*Show picture of CX plane* What is this plane? How did you come to this conclusion? What are the main differences between the planes in the CX fleet?
What planes are in the CX fleet
Describe the training aircraft at FTA
What does the SO do? What planes do they fly on?
Where do the SOs fly to?
I understand that this is probably some repeat stuff, but hopefully will help any CX applicants!
