Would you fly under Virga and why or why not?
definition of v1 and v2 speeds?
can you please explain notam(D)?
what does it mean if radar is required on approach?

 

Dude don't take this the wrong way, but no wonder you are still looking for a job, how do you not know this stuff?

 

1. Never fly under Virga...quite possibly the most unstable air you would ever encounter. Think "microburst"! I can elaborate if you need me to.

2. Here are the official definitions:

V1 - critical engine failure recognition speed. V1 is the minimum speed in the takeoff, following a failure of the critical engine at VEF, at which the pilot can continue the takeoff with only the remaining engines. Any problems after V1 are treated as inflight emergencies. In the case of a balanced field takeoff, V1 is the maximum speed in the takeoff at which the pilot must take the first action (e.g., apply brakes, reduce thrust, deploy speed brakes) to stop the airplane within the accelerate-stop distance and the minimum speed at which the takeoff can be continued and achieve the required height above the takeoff surface within the takeoff distance. In this context, V1 is the takeoff decision speed.

V2 - takeoff safety speed. Also called takeoff screen speed, the minimum speed in the second segment of a climb following an engine failure.

3. Notam D is where you can expect to find the important stuff such as runway closures, nav aid outages, basically any ammendment to a published procedure.

4. Radar required for the approach. What do you mean, what does it mean?

Hope it helps.

 

So you knew all about V1 and V2 and Vfs prior to your first 121 job? Come on dude, cut the guy a break. Although some of this information is learned through the initial ratings (or college for some of us), is not always easy to remember all.

 

Sanchez, come on though the Green ATP oral Guide! You don't need a 121 job for that, just 19 bucks. I feel for the guy but he has been looking for a job forvever, you would think by this point he would of least read some of the gouges on Aviationinterviews.com, All that stuff is in there. But Buffalo I wish you luck man, Im pulling for ya

 

I think I got asked V1 and V2 on my multi checkride or maybe it was MEI. Either way, all of my multi students knew what they were even if they didn't use it on a regular basis.

 

Good luck on your interview. Also, try what Baroowski suggested...www.aviationinterviews.com. It could only help you. In addition, review your material as much as needed. Get rid of anything that may be a distraction to you while studying. Also, have you considered flying Part 135 before trying the 121 route?

Something to consider.

All the best. Blue skies.

RADAR REQUIRED- A term displayed on charts and approach plates and included in FDC NOTAMs to alert pilots that segments of either an instrument approach procedure or a route are not navigable because of either the absence or unusability of a NAVAID. The pilot can expect to be provided radar navigational guidance while transiting segments labeled with this term.

 

I thought you'd pick up on my sarcasm. I know what it means, I just thought it was self explanatory on the charts. I suppose I shouldn't have been a smart @ss about it.

 

Sorry! I don't always follow these boards closely so I couldn't tell if you were serious or not.
