Psychometric Tests were sold to airlines by the modern day equivalent of snake oil salesmen. They convinced (conned?) the plebs in Human Remains that only if they used these tests would they be able to filter out the weirdos, psychotics, schitzos, bi-polar suffers et al from joining their airline. The problem is that most pilots are pretty weird people. What sane person would gamble their house and family on a job? Who could realistically build a business case to enter a saturated market? Yet the idiots in HR pay for each test they issue, religiously mark the ****e that is returned and still employ bloody muppets! You can practice for them, but there is no need. If you are weird enough, you pass.
