Type ratings in themselves are a massive source of revenue for RYR. €29,500 is a lot more than the self-worth of the course and the training department is alleged to generate a couple of milion euro of revenue every year. Moreover, low-hour pilots are on a lower payscale. So, I wouldn't be so certain that in the coming years only experienced pilots will be recruited. Someone needs to feed that training department by "buying the dream" for some mere €29,500 and a contract with 0 guaranteed hours, 12 guaranteed hours or anything in between afterwards. Whoever can afford it can quite realistically have some chance within the next year.
