Did PSP1 in Brisbane earlier this week. Computer exams were identical to whats on LPJ. Sim in the 737NG.

Sim was a bit weird, BN R19, climbing & descending turns (apparently not marked), raw data ILS --> go around --> engine failure. Went out of tolerances during this excercise.

Then asked what I would do now, they are after your failure management procedure stuff. Single engine ILS with FD on, nothing to bad here.

Biggest gimmick is they dont give you any power settings / attitudes / speeds before the sim so its all trial and error when you jump in. The speeds are different to Microsoft flight sim, so that didnt help. Probably a bit harsh considering none of the candidates had any jet time (all turboprop pilots).

Was told they are after 500 pilots this year, 700 next year, and this year is all for B777.

Not expecting any further progression through the recruitment stage as I did go out of tolerance during the engine failure, but hopefully some others find this information useful.
