I can assure you that there were some lessons learned. The make-up of the crew was looked in to.
My ideas of CRM are a bit different to what the industry is accustomed to. I have really gotten into the subject and have pursued more education and I am really starting to see things a bit clearer as to concepts, application and facilitating. Good journey.

As to mil conversions... Yes, NetJets does allow a conversion at the rate of 1.2 hours per military hour flown. If I remember correctly it was explained in the app with the matrix on flight times/types, etc.

I think if you look on the instruction page that came with the application it tells you that you may use a straight 1.2 for your times. They really don't care though, unless you need the conversion for their mins. In my interview group there were dudes with 18,000 121 hours and dudes like me with <3000 mil time. All you needed were the mins.

It was per hour (advantage to the military heavy guys), and it was explained on the front page of the application packet that I received in the snail mail from them in October. I haven't checked out the online product.

When was the last time they threw an A/FD in your lap during an interview? Rise over run is exactly how it's computed every time; there is no other way to calculate it, so if you don't happen to have an A/FD with you, rise over run does and will cut it. Sorry, but I have to point out your flawed reasoning............

Blueridger is absolutely correct. All they wanted to see during my interview was to look at the airport diagram, determine the difference in elevation between one end of the runway and the other, divide by the runway length and multiply by 100. Simple as that. The example they used had nice round numbers.

Hi!
U definitely want to go to aviationinterviews.com and spend $ for the month or 3 month membership and study the info.
There may be very few, or LOTS of tech questions, depending on?-no one really knows. FOR SURE you will have one of the safety/customer service scenarios, and you need to do well there. You may or may not be asked questions about your aircraft.
They make the sim VERY, VERY simple (Citation II). They just want to see you fly basic instruments, and show CRM with your buddy. Get with your buddy and have a game plan-keep it simple. The hard thing in the sim is to fly it reasonably well-you may be nervous and the sim may be hard to fly, depending on your background. The profile is TO Rwy Hdg to 4.0, do some climbing turns. Level 6.0, 200 kts., 360 steep turns L/R, then more turns and descents, and then direct to the NDB. Figure out your hold and confirm with your buddy. Enter holding at 4.0. You will be flying inbound on the localizer, so you only use the NDB for station passage and outbound abeam. In the hold descend to 2.0. Get cleared for the ILS and fly it to the runway. That's it.
