they can ask anything from anywhere from any genre from anything exist or dont in this universe.

the main point the wish to see is how you react accordingly. you dont have to know all the answers to their qnses...cuz i am certain they will ask you until you duno.

also, as per all interviews, you need to show the captain and the HR officer sitting in front of you how much you want the job. the training phase is at least 2 yrs to get your MPL. and trust me you will be studying like you never have during ground school. failing is not an option cuz you may/will get terminated.

Can share more information about ETOPS?

 

[lowy]

If you are good, they sponsor you for lasik... But hope your lasik don't screw up too... Maximum 500 degree per eyes. But you must be darn good in your interview to be offered...

i don't think i should share operational stuff here on a public forum. but you can google for EDTO vs ETOPS. there will be more than enough info on pprune forums and icao for you to have a read.

this is the first time i heard this. i only heard of pple failing the requirement then went for lasik on their self then apply after 1 yr. cuz lasik needs some time to stabilise the cornea or watsoever.

lol i already failed the myopia requirement.

Is combined science ok or do they prefer candidates who have studied pure physics?

 

[Greysky]

jin muddy moi only can apply when my bond ends another 15 years to go

 

[teaspoons]

Why do you want to be a pilot?

How does an aircraft fly?

It's my passion/dream since young.
9 out of 10 will probably say this

seems fine. When you wear specs is 6/6 right? If it is, it's good.

 

[Greysky]

No longer has the 26yrs old rule for SG males?

jiayou dahawk. Remember me

i am certain you will be in for a ride...a rough one the moment you reply like dat.

you better have a good understanding in the history of the aviation industry, from YFC, has PPL or CPL etc to prove your PASSION SINCE YOUNG.

 

[figo16]

I like math and flying flight simulator x but hate physics. can apply or not?

Not really sure on this. The optician just took my lens to measure the information. And wrote to me a slip with 6/12. So I supposed VA is with lenses.

Cannot like that de -.- They want you to go for eye test without specs first, then wear specs can see 6/6 or not.

that's what they mean by correctable to 6/6
