A pulse and a bank balance are preferred at Ryanair.
But seriously, pass rates are not 50%. That's absurd. Who could train all these pilots (loads of LTCs and TREs have left for the desert) and where would they be based? The company cut routes and grounded planes this summer because they have lost too many Captains and senior FOs.
And despite this, there are already too many FOs at Ryanair (heard this week from the mouth of a senior training pilot at Ryanair's East Midlands Training centre). To you guys this means that the hours you fly will be lower than is currently the norm for FOs. That means much less pay to repay those expensive loans.
You guys are recruited only because the training department makes a huge profit. Whether you sit around doing little flying once trained is not their problem.
Who cares. Who's got an assessment? My mate's on the type rating course on the 32nd of Julember.
