There are plenty of cadets in the market and honestly who cares, they are completely useless if there is no experience left in the airline. What they need is captains that stay and can train the new recruits and fos who are upgradable to the left seat. If O'Leary doesn't want to hit the rock bottom, he better work his game with pilots and really fast, so far it appear that he still doesn't get it. Experience is leaving...
Well done RYA pilots for speaking publicly and for challenging the management, the whole industry is behind you and supports you.
The only way it is going to get better for all the Ryanair pilots is if they unionize, and good on them if they can include cadets in the negotiations, make go away the pay up front type rating and actually negotiate a decent a pay that starts with training. Don't trust MOL, he has proven not to be trustworthy.
