I'd be careful busting in there with the Merlin stuff. Chances are you will be asked which aircraft you want to talk about. I don't know how much experience you have with the Merlin but if its been limited or not very in-depth you could find yourself in a tough spot if the guy sitting across from you has upteen bazillion hours in the Merlin. I would go with whatever twin you have the most time in. Just a thought.

Hopefully they don't grill you on IFR procedures, stabilized approaches or how to go direct to a random point in space using a GPS Best of luck to you.
