Hi, I'm sure this has been asked but what does the term pay to fly mean?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

It means the utter joke of an inexperienced, unemployed pilot paying for his/her type rating, then paying a middleman for the 'honour' of flying said aircraft type for an airline. That's right, you pay an airline to fly as a copilot for 1-2-300 hours or more, with no job contract, no guarantee of more work, and no return beyond enough hours to make you dangerous.
