The DLR screening used by Lufthansa Group and several European cadet programmes is the hardest first filter in civil aviation — days of concentration, multitasking, memory, spatial and math modules at relentless pace. Persona Prep is independent and not affiliated with DLR or any airline; we train the same PERFORMANCE substrate — divided attention, monitoring, spatial orientation, applied numeracy — with our own generated modules.
Free to start. Every item is generated fresh, marked with a full worked solution, and ranked on a 1–9 stanine band that recalibrates as more candidates practise.

What it measures
DLR-style screenings read raw trainable capacity: sustained concentration over hours, multitasking without collapse, short-term memory under interference, spatial orientation from instrument readings, and fast mental arithmetic. None of it is knowledge — all of it responds to training, which is why the candidates who pass overwhelmingly describe weeks of daily practice on the module families beforehand.
The format
Where marks are lost
Training the parts separately and never the endurance. Most candidates drill each module family in comfortable ten-minute sessions, then meet a selection day that runs them for hours — and the score that collapses is not any single skill but the concentration curve across the day. Build sessions that chain modules back to back; the stamina is the skill.
Why practise here
The five flight-deck style module families as live interfaces, chainable back to back for endurance work
Applied numeracy and deductive-grid practice with full worked solutions
A stanine rank per module so the weak family is found and fixed privately
Unlimited fresh runs, generated — no fixed bank to burn through
Two exercises free before any payment
Where you will meet it
Hiring stages where this format is commonly used. Persona Prep is not affiliated with DLR (format family) and does not reproduce their questions — we build practice in the same format, from our own generators.
With Persona Prep Pro
One subscription covers the whole assessment library, not just this exercise — because almost nobody is invited to sit only one module.
The full aptitude library
SHL Verify, Aon cut-e, Hogan and Saville formats — numerical, verbal, inductive, deductive, mechanical, checking and the interactive modules.
A rank, not just a score
Every run is placed on a 1–9 stanine band that recalibrates as the candidate pool grows, so you know your position.
A course per exercise
What it measures, the trap that costs marks, and worked items from every format — then the exercise itself.
Unlimited fresh items
Everything is generated, so you never run out and never memorise a bank.
Written + voice AI coach
Reads your results across exercises and tells you which two to fix first.
Personality practice too
SHL OPQ32, Hogan HPI/HDS/MVPI, Saville Wave, ADEPT-15 and 16PF, with full profile reports.
Aon
Aon Pilot Assessment
Airline selections run the cut-e modules that cannot be prepared for by reading: dials to monitor, tasks to juggle, an aircraft to steer. Practise them as interfaces, not as PDFs — because that is how they are served.
Aon
easyJet Pilot Assessment
Candidates going through easyJet pilot selection widely report a cut-e style online battery early in the process. These modules are interfaces, not question papers — dials to watch, tasks to juggle — and familiarity with the interface is worth real marks.
Aon
Emirates Pilot Assessment
Long-haul flag carriers screen hard because training seats are scarce. Candidates in Emirates pilot selection widely report a cut-e style aptitude battery — the same interactive formats as European selections, with the same rule: interface familiarity is scored like ability.
Playable sample questions, worked solutions, instant feedback.
What candidates commonly report facing, and which format to train.
