They did interviews on the 12th, When you show up they give you a quiz, I thought it was fairly easy, any proficient instrument pilot should be able to answer it. No ATP questions, they also give you the 15 month training contract to look over (you will sigh it first day of class). Know your Jeppesen charts and you will be fine. They are not asking hard questions but they are looking for you to know you how to fly instrument and follow procedures. They don't ask trick questions just stuff that you should be able to do.

The interviews are done in the hotel, the most they cold do is bring a PCATD. I am not sure if you are aware of the type of flying GLA does, but not Auto Pilot and no FMS, everything is done by hand and some airports the only approach is an NDB. So if you are worried about a SIM ride on the interview I don't know what to tell you about their training, they have one of the biggest wash out rates in the industry. You either have it or you don't.
