money and conditions practically the same as dublin and charloi pilots....not as good as stansted but that is mainly due to the strength of sterling ....if you joined after 9/11 thaen you are on half sector pay for year one and 75% year 2 full year 3 ...the ryans don't really need direct entry cpts at the mo as they have shed loads of fo's ready for training ...the people who are there a while are happy and there shares are worth a fair bit at the mo ....life is pretty simple in the ryans ...hard work well paid ...and never never p**s miko off ...he who has the gold makes the rules !!!. . . . <small>[ 21 March 2002, 19:32: Message edited by: noddylives ]</small>
