Read Page 1 ... control in a stall, how does a turbofan engine work, what is bypass air, why do we use so much bypass air, what kind of systems does a jet have, what do we use bleed air for, what about hydraulics, what kind of power does the plane have, why do use AC instead of DC, how to you convert between ac and dc (inverters and rectifiers). We talked about anticipated and unanticipated threats, time and no time threats, and discussed how emergencies are usually handled. Asked me what to do if you get a hot start or if a circuit breaker pops. Next we talked about jepp charts, discussed a hot spot, asked me about what markings you would see where and what they look like, mandatory hold short sign, taxiway signs, runway remaining signs, ILS critical area, and displaced thresholds. We went into a scenario flying along and having a small issue...

Interview went really well. I thought I would share my experience here, I prepared on my own which I found to be good enough. I would recommend having your hours ready to go. 30/60/90 and 12 Months. I just had a notepad with everything totaled out. He loved that I didn't have to look anything up more than glancing down. For the CRM scenario He wanted to Role play the scenario so don't say things like "I would" just talk to him and he plays all the parts. FO, ATC, Dispatch,... -
