Got the interview invite about 10 days ago.
Not hired (yet....I hope) but here are my numbers:
~ 5200 TT
~ 4100 PIC
~ 3200 IP
~ 2300 multi eng
All except ~ 70 hrs is military/turbine. Ap in for about 3 1/2 months.
Question: I'm drowning in gouge; I've got so much to read through (and, according to this website a lot of it is wrong) I don't know where to begin. One single file a friend sent me via DropBox was almost 150 pages, and there were probably 100 files total in that DropBox.
Any advice on how to study for the Knowledge Test from those who got the CJO????
And...how long did the average CJO study for the Knowledge Test???

I would read through most of the gouge you can (some might be wrong...you can use Google to verify some questions.) Don't get too wrapped around the axle on math questions. I only had 3 or 4 questions requiring actual math, as did many of my interview classmates.
Know the basics of holding (entries and speeds).
Don't blow off the cog test. There's some good powerpoint stuff out there to give you an idea of what to expect. Check your PM.
Good luck!

Sitting at 5000TT, About 2000TPIC 121 . 5-10 LORs at various majors. BA degree. No accidents or incidents, no speeding tickets, DUIS. I did however fail my CFI three times about 8 years ago when I was 18. No other training issues.
When folks mention no training failures on here, are they talking about a 100% spotless training record or a spotless 121 training record? Could my part 61 issues be an issue at a major level?

Delta cjo on 31 July. From that week 11/11 Tue.,7/9 Wed, 5/7 Thu (my group). Tit bit. Head of pilot selection said the tests were averaged to decide pass fail. First time I heard that. So a great cog can pull up a mediocre gk. if the number on the screen of the gk was any indicator there are around 2800 questions in the data bank. Hard to prep for that. I was disappointed in the Everything Explained book. Another guy used the Turbin Pilots Flight Manual, said it was better.
They did tell us that two sims are down and it may be the first of the year for a class date.
