No sim ride
fmgc – you are indeed quite correct ! I realised later on that in fact the person who told me about Monarch, did indeed refer to the fact that the person in question (and I don't believe they had that many hours - if memory serves correct was leaving Easy for Monarch) had no sim ride ! As previous posts have indicated. A brief chat and handshake !!
Just goes to show you can't believe everything you read on pprune ;-)
