Helicopter Pilot Interview Questions
67 helicopter pilot interview questions shared by candidates
Not much technical difficulty. I answered basic questions about the helicopter. More questions were asked regarding difficult people to work with.
No questions were formally asked. There was a flight aptitude test that had to be taken among other things, that had technical questions, aviation and non-aviation specific questions, and two forms of psychological profiling tests included within it.
If I had the option to save the aircraft or save the crew and passengers which would I pick.
The most difficult question was regarding my past employment and the reason for leaving.
What do you expect out of the company?
Wx goes below minimums en route to pick up. What would you do.
Fold a paper airplane and talk about something interesting. Paper airplane looked like garbage.
Are you current?
Phone interview, basic - why Metro, what are your positive attributes, what have you been doing since not flying etc. Once you get to Louisiana you get a 20 -25 question test including fill in the blank. If you are applying for a VFR position be prepared to review ALL your IFR procedures including lost comms, light flashing signals and what they mean (seriously), review RAW Metars and know what AO1, and AO2 mean in the remarks section of the METAR. (Does anyone know the difference between an AO1 and AO2 and in the real flying world does this make a difference between accepting or declining a flight)? I was told that the test would be on Part 61,91,135 and basic aerodynamics. UNTRUE... If you deviate from a rule how many days do you have to send in your response. How does this correspond to real life day to day flying? It does not. And if in the real world you did deviate you'd contact your Chief Pilot and go to the FAR manual. Ridiculous to have had this memorized from a three inch thick FAR/AIM manual. If you do not get an 80 or above the Interview is over and you are asked to leave with your tail tucked between your legs.
