Yes I have passed the sim check, so the next stage for me is the end interview. Concerning the man. pressure it most likely is a turbocharged aircraft but you won't have any turbo lag or anything.

Yep 'battlefield' could be the word as this will be my first selection test... But I think I'm not the only one in that case.
I basically will review all my ATPL-theory with thorough reading, certainly for reglementation, it will be a good refresher as I have to do my IR/ME yearly renewal beforehand so...
As for the psychotechnic test, I'm a bit worried by this but I saw plenty of little tests on the internet with numbers and such, I'll do that to prickle my ingenious mind (yeah, sure.... brrr). Surviving this, there is still an interview certainly with some German, hups...
I already ordered the said 'standby-ticket' from BRU for dep 12sept, I've heard from the lady of the phone-booking in Austria that there were a lot of stby-tickets on flight Vienna - Innsbruck (OS 0911) 15:30 16:40 ; guess I won't be alone there
Anyways, good luck to everybody who will be attending over there, nice to see some change in our situations

Congrats on your interviews guys and all the best luck!!
I'm just graduated and applied to Tyrolean on the Austrian Airlines site but didn't get invited. might I ask how and when you guys applied?
(oh and btw where did you find those math and language skill tests on the internet? I might try some 'cos I have my Air Asia interview coming up next week.)

Yep. There will be alot of SBYs on VIE INN in the morning of the 13th sep. Believe me, better to travel a day in advance. A F70 is just a 80 seater but for the time being, there are more than 20 seats available.

Of course I travel a day in advance (i'm a precautionuous guy) - don't know if I'll be able to visit Innsbruck a little the evening on arrival - don't think I'll be "that" relaxed as I am right now hehe...
Artishock, I applied through http://www.tyrolean.at/e_index.htm , they send me papers to fill in (all in German) + motivation letter I sent in English (dont' feel that 'good' in German, so I took the risk) and I got contacted by letter approx. just one year later, after re-updating my files.

For you guys attending the 1. Stufe, here is what I wrote to another ppruneguy asking about it:

> The next day they have different computerbased tests. 'ntelligence:

> turkish counterparts, words=4 digit numbers, 20 pictures, a roaddescription,
>
> a story about a german forrestfire, letters combined with different figures
> etc etc.. You have about 1-2 minutes to memorize it before the next task is
> comming, but the difficult part is that you have to memorize it all before
> you can answer. Make yourself some mnemonic tecniques. reaction test: 5

Hey guys,
I made it through the first 2 stages and I will have my final interview within 2 weeks. I was supposed to have had it 2 weeks ago but if you travel with the stand-by tickets they give you, you have the chance that one time your flight is full and if the captain doesn´t want to take you on the jump, you stay home.....
I bought a ticket for next time 
If anybody wants some info about the first stages, mail me: [email protected]
On the other hand I would appreciate some usefull info about the final interview, especially from people who just had it.
Good luck for all of you!!!
Greetz,
Gis

Selection Tyrolean March 18th 2005
Hi there,
I recently received a letter in which Tyrolean invites me to their selection program in Innsbruck. I was just wondering if any more student-pilots received the invitation for the dates of March 17th and 18th.
And, if some pilots already did this selection phase (psychmetric and ATPL/JAR/JAA questions) I am very interested in all the information about these tests.
Thank you for your reply,
Maybe we meet in March,
Greetings from Holland, Bas van Veldhuizen

Did the selection last July
First phase:
English flight theory test. Get FAA CPL study guide and youll be fine, it pretty much based on the FAA CPL, well 90% ish.
Second Phase:
Psycometric testing (2 days, includes group discussion, one to one interview with Psycologist and computer based psycometric test)
The computer based test is pretty harsh, memory test, motor skills, reaction time, multitasking and concentration.
I bought Hesse Schrader, Test Training 2000.
I thought I was pretty well prepared and a good candidate, (Mechanical Engineering Backround), but wasnt called back for next phase....sob sob sob
Third Phase:
Sim check..Linz or Graz, (SID, Star, rad vectors, ILS, single needle approach etc.) Yes I think they use a multi engine sim now, but no engine faliures etc. so same as single
Fourth Phase
Interview with management and chief pilot
Fifth Stage
Medical
Apply and be prepared, they are apparently looking for 60 f/o's for the Fokker 100's.
Dont kid yourself, prepare as best you can, on the previous selection out of 100 people they only took 4, holy crap, fussy or what.
If you do f up you can apply again in 6 month. Like Im doing now
cheers
