Aussie029,
Just the standard interview stuff mate. Learn as much as you can about the aircraft, where they fly, what the company has been up too(all available on the website).
Also revise your IFR theory, supersonic aerodynamics, meteorology, IAP procedures etc.
Then to top it off, sit down and think about some questions they may ask you in the personel interview, if you have trouble, just do a search on the net for interview questions. Also think about what you could ask them.

Jars, just curious, are the supersonic aerodynamic questions for when they get Concordes or are they fitting afterburners and swept wings to the F50s :}:}

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing!

Perhaps reading about "High Speed Flight" or "Swept Wings" might be the go.

Just afterburners....... the swept wings take care of themselves at the first application of afterburner. :}
OOOOOOOr, could be F100 related questions.

Just re-read my post, left myself open for that one didn't I:} What I meant to say was to study all the swept wing theory,definitions etc. They do have a habit of asking these questions.

Brutal! Just brutal!

More than half of Perth Airport has been given the call!

So you didn't get a call Brazman??

We told you that you shouldn't step on the toes of people before you.... :=

Maybe learn how to fly a PA31 first, :D

Morno, I think you have me confused with Brazman, who you have had a disagreement with previously, not me! I will not take sh*t that is meant for someone else!

why did they design the F50 without an APU anyway? what a disaster...

Ooops, sorry Brazdriver, you are correct.

APU was an option on the F50, it's just that Ansett didn't go for it as these F50's were originally bought to sevice the east coast where the weight savings outweighed the need to have aircon on the ground in the cooler climes of the south east of oz.

GPU's the order of the day for Skywest F50's, APU's would be very nice to have.
