Sheppard Air, Inc. does not guarantee the accuracy of the information presented below as it relates to your interview, nor does Sheppard Air, Inc. warrant the information in any way or make any guarantees as to your success.  \n♦ For preparing for the one-on-one interviews, consider calling an interview consulting company, like:  \nEmerald Coast Interview Consulting ([www.emeraldcoastinterviewconsulting.com](www.emeraldcoastinterviewconsulting.com)) Future & Active Pilot Advisors ([www.FAPA.aero](www.FAPA.aero))  \n♦ For the 12-part Cognitive Skills test, the information out there on the web for the cognitive test is pretty decent but not sufficient alone. Textual description isn't enough. One person said, \"I prepared for that by doing brain exercises on [Lumosity.com](Lumosity.com). Although they were different, they were similar in concept to the test Delta used.\"  \n♦ We have no advice to offer you at this time for preparing for the Personality Test, orthe 567-question Psychological Test.  \n♦ Technical Test (Job Knowledge test) Preparation: Delta will give you the following link to a subject outline:  \n[http://www.airl](http://www.airl)[ineapps.com/documents_archive/Delta/Study_Guide_12_03_07.pdf](ineapps.com/documents_archive/Delta/Study_Guide_12_03_07.pdf)[ ](ineapps.com/documents_archive/Delta/Study_Guide_12_03_07.pdf)It lists a number of possible references at the end which could be studied to prepare for the test. Here are three publications that interviewees have said were good study references:  \nEverything Explained for the Professional Pilot by Richie Lengel (available at many retailers)  \nPilot's Rules of Thumb by Art Parma (available at many retailers)  \nFAA Handbook FAA-H-8083-25A, Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge (electronic copy available for free at [http://www.sheppardair.com/PilotReferences.htm](http://www.sheppardair.com/PilotReferences.htm))  \nHere are some questions representative of those you will see on the Job Knowledge test. They do not exactly match those you will see. We've been told the test is 60 questions, and you will be given 60 minutes.  \n1. If you hold a constant Mach during climbout, what happens to TAS, IAS, and AOA as you approach your level-off altitude?  \na) TAS increases, IAS decreases, AOA increases  \nb) TAS increases, IAS decreases, AOA decreases  \nc) TAS decreases, IAS decreases, AOA increases  \nd) TAS decreases, IAS decreases, AOA increases  \n2. If you hold 360 KTAS in a descent from FL360 to FL200,  \na) Mach number increases, IAS increases, AOA decreases  \nb) Mach number decreases, IAS decreases, AOA decreases  \nc) Mach number decreases, IAS decreases, AOA increases  \nd) Mach number decreases, IAS increase, AOA decrease  \n3. Your pitot-static system loses all electricity. What are the indications in the cockpit?  \na) Airspeed is unreliable.  \nb) Airspeed acts as an altimeter.  \nc) All indications remain fixed.  \nd) All indications are unaffected.  \n4. Which statement is INCORRECT about holding?  \na) Use a standard rate turn of 3 degrees per second in IFR conditions.  \nb) You enter holding via parallel, direct, or teardrop entries.  \nc) timing below 14,000' is one minute  \nd) timing at or above 14,000' is one and one-half minutes  \n5. According to the figure (AIM Figure 2-3-31),  \na) you are on taxiway Tango, if you turn right you will be on runway 18, and if you  \nturn left you will be on runway 36  \nb) you are on taxiway Tango, if you turn left you will be on runway 18, and if you turn right you will be on runway 36  \nc) if you turn right you will be on taxiway Tango headed north  \nd) if you turn left you will be on taxiway Tango headed north  \n6.
