Royhudd,

Exactly the point I was trying to make on another thread.........

People making job changes in their late 20's & 30's, then responding to glossy brochures and 'buying' themselves an 737 job with ****ty companies like Ryanair. There is no skill in that method. It can hardly be called an achievement to pay for line training!!

We can take comfort in the fact that those who buy themselves a job are rarely the kind of pilot real airlines hire. Luckily we don't often have to work with the likes of these people, but rather sit next to someone who may be ex airforce, or done the hard yards through GA.
