Hello WWW,

Its unfair to lump them with the Ryanair schemes of paying upfront for a rating with no gaurantee of a job.
This is not entirely correct either. Let me quote from the Ryanair website :

3. Ryanair Pilot 3. Successful and suitable candidates will be offered a contract to fly for Ryanair subject to obtaining a B737 rating from a Ryanair approved training organisation
4. Obtain your B737-rating from a Ryanair approved training organisation. If you pass the simulator assessment, you will be offered a contract to fly for Ryanair subject to obtaining your B737-rating from a Ryanair approved training organisation. See the panel on the left for a list of Ryanair-approved training organisations.
True, Ryanair charges Ģ50 for an application and another fee for the sim check, but itīs all too easy to bash Ryanair (which happens a lot on this forum), while it seems that EZ is not much better when you look at the bottom line.
