What to study prior to regionals?
I've got a few months left until I begin interviewing at the regionals.
Having lots of free time I would like to get a head start on studying.
What should I read / know / learn going into this?
Thanks for any advice

Interview gouges and that's really about it. You'll learn the rest of what you need to know in ground school. It's best not to study ahead of 121 knowledge, your airline will want to teach it their way. If you are itching to open a book maybe brush up on IFR procedures like flying STARS or SIDS. Other than that watch Flying Cheap on PBS and you'll be good to go.

A nice IFR refresher is a good idea, know how to brief an approach chart and read enroute charts.

of course read the interview gouges for whatever airlines you are applying for but I would also say depending on your background if you have not flown a jet maybe pick up a copy of Turbine Pilots Manual. also if this is will be your first airline get everything explained for the commercial pilot. Both of these helped me on the interview as well as when I actually started flying for a 121.

Don't worry about it. Go to your interview wearing a wife beater and a diaper with combat boots and a football helmet. They will offer you a chief Pilot position right off the rip

Read the last six months of gouges for the specific airline on aviationinterviews.com
That worked for me four times.

Hard Landing followed by Flying the Line (http://www3.alpa.org/publications/Fl...The_Line_1.pdf) would be good reads.

If you know generally which airline you want to go to and what you might wanna fly, you can go to smartcockpit.com. See if your aircraft is listed and start reading it's systems.
