Any recent info about the knowledge test? I've got Everything Explained for the Professional Pilot and Aerodynamics for Naval Aviators. Just curious if there are any other worthwhile study aids available that applicants should be reviewing.

I'm also wondering what role the knowledge test plays in the process. If someone does poorly on the test, are they done regardless of their credentials and interview performance, or is it just one more nail in the coffin if the interview doesn't go well?

So you've already tested?

No, I found out what I was looking for. The process now is a two day event. First day is the test and the second day is the board interview and situation event. My interview is the week 20-24 April.

they said at WIA they share the same test as DL so I'd study the Delta gouges floating around

Two days, one trip? I know they used to have you come out to MEM twice. Once for testing, then go home and wait to see if they call you back. If they call you back, then you go back to MEM for the face to face and CRM exercise. Would be nice if they knock it out in one two day trip like Delta.

That is precisely the information I was looking for. Thank you!
