Hello, as a pilot in Ryanair what are the rules for doing some private flying at the local flying club?
Commercial flying outside RYR is not allowed at all.

That is a very interesting concept for so called self-employed pilots who are not officers, employees, agents etc. etc of said RYR; yet they control when you fart. Are you allowed to take part in risky past-times the day before a flight duty? Injury could cause them problems. Or even on the duty day itself before your 'lates'. Is glider flying included? What about hang-gliding & paragliding? Is banner towing on days off a commercial flight? Is giving flight instruction at the flying club? If you are contracted to BRK, how can RYR control anything you do? There is supposed to be no connection between the 2 parties, and you are also not an agent, officer nor employee of BRK. So which Sunday school airline do you fly for?

Can't imagine the Greeks will be too upset. Flights continue until 2 October anyway and the country can't afford to pay FR's marketing fees for a few weeks of less-than-peak season

DETAP and the Mayor of Kos should now explain to Rhodes and Kos residents, why they have now refused to partner with the only airline interested in bringing new passengers, new jobs and millions in tourism revenues to the region.
But on the other hand, can they afford not to. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

For many years I used to fly 1000's of tourists to Kos & Rhodes for UK long before the irish discovered where it was. They paid a fair price. The Germans and Scandinavians slowly took over the islands and the 'greek' disappeared. I'm sure the N.Europeans are still there in large numbers and the 'irish' are in the small minority. Once again RYR throwing toys out of pram.

Ryanair will now close 11 routes to Kos and 13 routes to Rhodes, one month before the end of the summer season, resulting in the loss of over 23,000 high spending tourists
Greece is going down in flames because of pilot shortage??

Shoeless - These forums are full of the information you are asking for. If you just use a little of the gumption you will need to be a pilot and spend a few minutes looking through some older threads you will find all you need. Try looking through "terms and endearment"

What a load of tosh Racedo, there are a lot of pilots out of work in the EU and unfortunately some more to join when BMIBaby close down. Of course hardly any of them want to work for the airline (I say that loosely) you seem to represent and who can blame them!
Sarcasm button at end would give an idea of the suggestion that FR cancelling Greece flights because of pilot shortage.
Well aware of hits on Pilots when airlines have shut.

Airlines are pulling out of Greece everyday there is news about routes being closed, very soon there will be not Long Haul flights from Greece at the rate of route closures. Anybody think that the routes to Kos Rhodes are just not profitable enough to sustain with fuel etc and as per FR blame somebody else.

Ryanair told to fill 'unpaid-for' seats at emergency exits - National News - Independent.ie
Stephen McNamara, the airline's spokesman, said: "We are revising our boarding procedures and briefing our crews at all bases to comply with this requirement from June 1, 2012".
