Hi guys, on my way to AMS right now, I got some SIM info: Departing 36L AMS, raw data, no autothrottle, lots of CRM, VOR radials interception, ILS app, no eng fail or any other malfunction, wind 300/10. ATPL info anyone?

Interview :
11 candidates every day ….
15 min for introduction of AAI and the SIM program
30 min ATPL Test, 16 questions only (with answers) -see below
15-20 min Interview (Introduce yourself, What do you know about AAI… no technical question)
40-50 min (each 20min) fix based 737-8 SIM :
- no tricks
- no air work
- TO follow SID Rendi 1Z, leaving PAM on R120 for 1min, left turn to intercept LOC27, landing > change seats.
- Wind 300/10, ceiling ~500ft
> you have enough time for preparation at the briefing room (Cockpit :”As briefed before”), checklist simple
> only fly and switch Radio +NAV +MCP
> we got all the same scenario on this day... other day other SID/STAR ???????
>>> get MS-FSimulator and train on the computer, it helps to get the time felling, when you switch the VOR+MCP.....

conclusion : really friendly environment, no pressure, ATPL question out of daily life, AAI guys are nice (a big compliment to the patience and friendliness > if you will fly there, they are really good colleges)
it is my first interview, which I rate with A+++; other companies should take this as example!!





——————————————- Feedback from a other day ———————————-

Hello Pilotfly-FL410, thanks for the great writeup, very helpful.

You mention the ATPL test questions, "ATPL question out of daily life" could you give an example?

Thanks.

Here some of the questions :

BUT NOTHING IS FOR FREE.... EVERYBODY ALWAYS WANT SOMETHING.... BUT THEY NEVER GIVE SOMETING BACK (PUPLISH NEW QUESTION OR/OR/OR ..)
I am sick of it ! I always spend hours and hours to write down, paint, screenshots, video record and so on... does one of you do the same after the interview ? or send me a update (that's the minimum !!!!)
I got only stupid comments (talk stupid and publish nothing)

Second : i always get some PM, but I'm unable to write back > “writers ...exceed available storage limits...“
>
a FO should be able to handle his own postbox before he handle a big machinery !

Interview : only 16 multiple choice questions in 30min

Dear Colleagues,
i got the Info, that all the questions (Test) was the same as I published …

where are the feed backs ?
only Take and no Return !!

it is really sad, that everybody take my infos…. And doesn’t return anything for the next guys….

shame on you…

it this behavior a good way for CRM ?

for the groundcourse with AAI, I give only information to the guys who wrote me back (only 2)
for the others, have to fight with the daily tests and the CBT..

FO: good results in the CBT and groundcourse will rise the upgrade possibility for CPT !!!

There is not much to write since you typed up all the info including the approach plate, which they changed. They probably going to change it again.

Can guarantee Air Atlanta don't give feedback on why you fail and they only hired pretty much all the type rated guy on the august interview, few non-rated FO (if I remember correctly), zero guys for the cruise relief pilot.

We appreciate your efforts Pilotfly-FL410! It helped me a lot.

Screening: Regarding the previously written up information I have some very important comments/additions:
1. The pre-screening "Psych/aptitude tests" provided by the 2 agencies are TOTALLY different!
2. SIM - B737 (NG) EGKK (LGW) ILS26 Dep WIZAD 4M 5000 feet to MAY for an Arrival from MAY - using INITIAL APPROACH ILS 26L. Hand flown using Raw Data VOR/ILS CDI. No use of FMC fixes etc.No "air work" i.e., steep turns, QDR/QDM no intercepts...
