Hi guys,
just a question about the IAA license.
I hold a EASA PART FCL - ATPL. Moving to Ryanair you have to transfer your License to Ireland and obtain a IAA License. They collect your EASA and give you the irish one (you can't hold 2 EU License at the same time).
If, one day, you want to apply to another airline how does it work? Are you considered a EASA holder or it is a single case to be evaluated by the recruitment team?
Usually, the European carrier's job posts are like:
JAR FCL or EASA PART FCL License
XXX Total Flight time
YYY on type
etc.
I cannot imagine that Ryanair's pilots are not eligible for screenings, rather they are always around doing assessments
PS: obviously, in case you want to go back to EASA you can't use the IAA for flying and have obtained an EASA as well, as they collect your License to deliver the new one. So at the time you apply for an airline and you are still flying with ryan, you just have the IAA.
