captjns you say:
Every Ryaniar pilot be it a first officer, cadet, or captain who has had their simulator or line training delayed has been on the payroll since day one.
This is very inaccurate indeed - in fact it is just plain wrong. Furthermore, there was a thread here in this very forum a few weeks agon stated by one of the pilots concerned pointing out how long he had gone without pay. Nobody these days gets paid ANYTHING until after they get rid of the safety pilot (and then the rate of pay varies). The periods between when people paid for their Type Rating and STILL have not even got close to being paid currently ranges from 6-11 months. These are not exceptional instances. The so-called CAE roster will give you an idea of how many there are.
