Hi everyone,

Next week Wednesday I have selection round 2 in Hamburg, for the FNPT simulator phase. This will be a test in the Diamond-42 simulator. My question to you guys, does anyone know what to expect and to prepare for? I used to know it was on a Piper Seneca Simulator, however now it is on a Diamond 42. Please provide me with all the tips you have guys, thanks in advance!

Sincerely,
Frans

Well they must have sent you a Sim Screening Briefing document, or if not check if it's available to download from the Career.aero portal, it should be in there.

They basically want to check your basic conventional IFR flying skills: all hand flown, no autopilot or autothrottle, no flight director, no magenta line, NAV based on raw data bearing needles.
Profile usually consists of a SID, some airwork, hold entry, precision approach, missed approach, non-precision approach.

Hi zui! Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback. I wanted to ask (or if anyone on this thread could please answer ) if you are able to have pen and paper for the pairs of scales exercise, as it is tougher than the one on skytest... Also, do we have a time limit for every part of the BQ or just some like ATPL, Maths, concentration...? Cause on skytest some exercises do not have a time limit. Thanks!!!

For the scales you can use pen and paper; and they do have a time limit. I believe the exercise with the scales was general logic and had more exercises (different sorts) in it. It was time limited and it's very difficult (basically impossible) to complete all the exercises in time.

I was thinking to apply again to Eurowings (and this will be the 3rd time).
First time back in 2019 where I reached the interview (corporate phase), and then again in 2021.
In 2021 they considered "valid" the BQ done in 2019. I did just the simulator because meanwhile I became more experienced.
Could the BQ still be considered valid if I apply now, or do I need to perform everything from the beginning ?

How many chances are there to get your "favorite" base ?
Palma is only seasonal or 12 months per year ?
Do they move you at the end of the season ?

Thanks for all your help !
All the best for the recruitment !
