Went 3/4 scale deflection on the approach and that was that. If you're going there for an interview, I would highly recommend trying to get some sim practice in ahead of time. Luckily I already have another job and I was just trying to keep my options open, but good luck to the rest of you who go!
that was the way it was back in May when I went to the interview.. about 3 or 4 only made it through the whole thing out of the 30 there. Everyone it seemed was furloughed 121 except me and a CFI or two.
