Sim Ride

Hello

I am invitet to a Sim ride in November. Has anyone been there recently ? What is the program ?

[green_aero]

Does anyone, who apply the last month, know how long takes to get the invitation?

I had completed the application 3 days ago and i would like to know approximately when i am going there.

What about their crm and social skills?
I know enough pilots who are very good at these tests and who are aces in the simulator, but in a daily operation where everything is non-predictable they stress.

Funny you should say that. We have a problem with exactly that.

As you all no doubt know by now, the full LH selection is three stages (or four with medical). For Regional you only have to have passed the first two which means we have about 80% or pilots who were rejected at the last stage. Often it's impossible to see why they didn't get through (being older certainly seems to count against you), but in many cases it's all too obvious.

BUT, all these people get through their sim checks with good marks which brings me back to my point that the GU and sim are effective in assessing technical competency.

Ps. I've never done the FU/FQ as I'm a: 43, b: and my eyes are just outside the LH limits

@deha

Well done on passing stage 1!

In comparison the sim is fairly straightforward. You will receive full instructions and are generally expected to fly a straight handling exercise such as a raw data departure, arrival, hold , approach and go around. You might get it a bit tougher if you are type rated.

Make sure you get a look at Lido Charts if you haven't used them before as they are quite different to Jepp / Aerad.

You should find out of you have passed immediately afterwards.

Hi Everyone,

I'm going to Hamburg on the 22nd of November for Lufthansa Italia.

I just graduated from a flight school and have my CPL-IR-ME (frozen ATPL) + MCC on 737NG (no type rating).

1) Any tips on which of the programs given by Lufthansa are actually asked on the DLR?
2) Are there ATPL theory questions?
3) When do you get the result?
4) What steps are there to take in case I pass the DLR?

Thanks!

Sam

First day of the DLR test for LHI

Hi everybody!

-ENS
-KRN
-OWT
-RMS
-ROT
-SKT
-VLR
-VMC
-ATPL questions
-no interview???

Thank you very much!!

[deha32]

@ guernott

all the cbt's you get will be at the DLR
in addition : 1 Block CRM
1 Block personality questions
MIC Test (only in Skytest available, but enough time to practise during DLR
1 Block ATPL - not too hard only basics everybody should know

[julien6887]

Thanks deha32,

so you confirm that there is no RAG (Mathematics) and TVT (Physics) ?

Cheers,

Julien

[SW1]

If I was you, I would be studying everything on the CBT. I know it can be a nightmare at times! There is no concrete evidence yet that RAG and TVT are NOT being tested. So best to play it safe, rather than chance it on the day seems quite a few of us are going on the 7th October......

[Guernott]

Thank you so much Deha32!!

Excuse me I have just few last questions...
Did you take this first assessment day?
Have you got more informations about CRM block?
Do you think "Ace" is enough to review aeronautical questions?
And are you sure there isn't an interview?

Thanks again!
Ps: Does someone know the successrate of LHI assessment?

Hello Guernott and julien6887


when I was in Hamburg (I was originally for Condor there), there was only KRN-mathematics - 1 block the questions were shown in written form, one block the questions were given over the headset.
at the CRM just tell them what you think and it will be ok
I don't know 'ace'. I just had the Oxford books
there will be no interview - this is in stage 3 at the FQ
I was only at the first stage, this is just one day

I don't know any details of the success rates. Just do your best and hope it is enough - so did I, and it was obvioulsy enough

[Guernott]

Thanks again Deha32!!

[SW1]

Can we assume that most of the tests will be at Level 3 standard? Or do they start off quite slowly and progressively increase in difficulty? Im finding it so difficult to keep up with the Level 3 cube rotation, Level 2 isnt so bad but the speed she reads out the commands on level 3 is nearly impossible!!!

In addition Im only getting a maximum of 25% in the RMS even with an average of 5 to 6 numbers.

Regarding the RMS -Ive found that if you write down the numbers in the scratchpad, it automatically puts them in the reverse order so you can input the numbers again in the correct sequence, without having to reorganise them yourself. Still getting a low percentage though

[deha32]

hello SW1

cube rotation starts very slow and gets faster, RMS with 5 to 6 should be ok, I had the same problems as you have

[Speedbrakesdeployed]

Anybody been through the tests that recomends buying the Skytest software, or is the CBT from DLR sufficient?

[SW1]

Skycaptain, I got an invitation and I dont speak any Italian or have an Italian education. i was asked to send in my University degree. If you have been higher educated to the equivalent of Itlalian Magistrale then you can apply

[Guernott]

Hi!

I totally agree with Sw1, I'm not Italian and I don't speak Italian!
Does someone know if ATTC training is interesting for our assessment?

Thanks

[Mimiben]

Sorry, that is what happens when you don't go to school.

good luck !

[Speedbrakesdeployed]

All you need is High School, with the right to apply for higher education. As far as I know, no university degree is needed. I got an invitation with only High School(not Italian, but equivalent)

[hetfield]

As far as I know, no university degree is needed.

True, like for LH Classic.
