they do not charge experienced pilots requiring a type rating, nor do they charge cadets who obviously require a type rating.
Lifted off the Monarch website -
Normally the minimum qualifications and experience that we require from pilot applicants are:
•A UK EASA ATPL (or Frozen ATPL) with UK EASA Class 1 medical certificate
•At least 2000 hours total time in fixed wing aircraft, including 500 hours completed on a heavy turbo prop or jet in excess of 15 tonnes
•MCC qualified
•The permanent right to live and work in the UK
Occasionally we may recruit pilots with lower total experience, but who possess a type rating for the Airbus A320.
Charge or no charge, you still need a bloody type rating
