a million miles?
RYR were the first EU airline to get the TRSS scheme going - that is PTF
A TR is a requirement for the job and they prefer to take on TRSS rather than TR FOs.
Pay for CV - was the case in 2004-2005
In the UK a LTD company requires registration with Companies House - this costs £ as does an accountant.
Working at Schipol in 2006, I met a RYR newbie who had just paid 30,000E for sim TR.
Compared to pre JAR CPL days this is self employed PTF until you have paid off your TR and interest and are Line Qualified. But paying for legally required licence renewals?!!!!
