I suspect I am the person to whom CY333 refers. He stated categorically that there was a cutoff age limit of 30 for Ryanair. As I joined the airline over the age of 30 I replied that I could say with certainty that he was incorrect. I also have many colleagues who joined at far greater ages and you will see several grey-haired FOs. CY333 refused to accept my statement of fact and reacted rather badly.

The remainder of his first paragraph above is figment of his own imagination, but we can draw our own conclusions as to why he might have been rejected when others of his age and older are accepted.

It is unfortunately true to say that your chances of first-time pilot employment decline with age due to a number of factors. To state that there are absolute limits in Ryanair is incorrect.
