Get your TMAAT down. Don’t worry about the specific question but understand that the questions are designed to ask you about leadership, conflict resolution and customer service at a minimum. Be able to knock “Why United” out of the park.

Follow their directions to the letter on what they want you to study. No more/ no less. It is not a trick. United is very straight forward. Also, tab your logbook and don’t bring in a hot mess of papers and logbooks for them to figure out. Make everything about you professional.

Good luck.

All of this! Definitely tab that logbook. Electronic is great, but always bring your original paper logbooks if you've kept those and transferred over. Endorsements will be looked at, so make sure those are available to the interview team.

Got a question I’m pretty sure I already know the answer to. I lost a small paper logbook I had for my current airline so I added it in as one flight with 1,300 hours in my digital book. This is a bad idea and I should probably find a way to get each leg entered individually right?

I know a guy who's wife burned his logbooks during the divorce. He went down to the FSDO, swore on a stock of AIMs and FARs and started a new logbook with the FSDOs endorsement, no attempt to rebuild the flight time. Got the job. YMMV.

I have an interview coming up too. Question: I have a nice Prosoft Logbook (paid way too much for it) and plan to get a consult in setting it up, but my physical student pilot logbook contains all my original endorsements. The endorsements are complete, but they're kind of a mess and not organized. Should I do what I did last interview and photocopy the endorsements to put in the Prosoft logbook? I don't want to make a bad impression with old logbooks.

Just bring your originals with your printed out logbook.

That’s interesting. I’m surprised the FAA did not hit her with a federal violation of tampering with federal flight records. Not a lawyer but I would think since those are required to verify for federal licensure and certificates that was an Avenue that could have been looked at. And BTW…I would have just said to her. “C U Next Time!”

TMAAT you were given a free TUMI suitcase and how did it make you feel?
