Hope for 250hr FRZ ATPL guys
I'm posting this to tell my story and to hopefully spread some light and good news, rather than the usual doom and glom that usually plagues these forums!
I started my flight training with SAA in January last year, spent a year in the states, passed the ATPL first time, then went to Sweden between March and July this year, completed the CPL/ME/IR first time in Sweden. Did the Ryanair MCC at OAA in Stockholm. Then after 2 months of searching I had a phone call from Ryanair, I then did the assessment, passed the assessment and now I'm waiting to hear about the T/R, which is rumoured to be early in the new year.
So believe me it is possible to get a job as a cadet at the moment and good luck to anyone applying.
Keep the faith!
