rogerg, the OAA Easy and Ryanair deals are not P2F, they are SSTR. These contracts are a different ball game. I agree with A320rider regarding the pay for line training system, line training is to familiarise the FO with the everyday running, operations and procedures of the specific airline, under the supervision of the line trainers before being released upon the rest of the companies commanders, it is not a transferable skill, move to another company after your time is up,you do more line training, learn different sops, etc....however some are successful in their endeavours with P2F and I wish them luck. Please don't confuse P2F with FR and Easy, whatever peoples views are, they offer some form of contract after completion of line training, and the FO receives pay during this period, a good way to get into the industry at the moment.
