I would say yes to anything you justify in the comments. Its about getting the computer to rate you...computers don't read comments boxes only "yes" or "no". If you were the ADO and spent anytime as the "acting" DO then I would check yes.

Guess I'm confused (not hard to do BTW). If your question is aircraft assignments this is how it goes...if you weren't selected for the 11 or an FDA then on your first day of class they simply rank order everyone by the last 4 of your SSN. Highest number wins. They have a list of available aircraft and start marking them off in order as folks select them. There is no basis given for previous quals etc. Not sure if that was the question but hope it helps😁

I'd like to keep this thread alive. It gives me hope when I hear of others getting calls, or has it dried up?
Here are a few questions about the questionnaire portion of the application that I've been trying to find, and haven't. Maybe someone can chime in:
#22 Have you ever been a Check Airman?... I provide equipment training and initial and recurrent checkrides in a Part 91 flight organization, but my title is "Instructor Pilot." Should I check "YES"?
Same question... I was a Flight Commander and ADO in UPT squadron and performed multiple progress checks on students who busted checkrides. Should I check "YES" or is that a stretch?
#30 Line Check Airman?... Is this strictly Part 135/121? Or based on my experience above in Part 91, do I qualify. I give checkrides that include Equipment Competency, IPC, and Line Check on the form. Again, my title though is "Instructor Pilot."
#34 Director of Operations?... Is ADO a stretch if I check yes, but explain it underneath as an Assistant Operations Officer?
#35 Duty Officer?... When I read this, I thought of SOC, SUP, or SOF from my military experience. The pilot who sits around and makes sure everything runs smoothly with that days operations either in the squadron or in the tower. Does this sound right, or is there a civilian definition I am missing?
Any help would be appreciated, especially from those who have been in similar Part 91 or Mil backgrounds. What did you do on these questions? Did you get called? Did it come up in the interview?
Thanks.

I was just curious how the 11 pilots were selected.
I'm extremely happy with my assigned aircraft (Nov 7 class).
