Well, slight tangent, but I did hear that New Captains at Ryanair are being offered Eastern Europe bases on can't remember if it was €43,000 or €49,000 P.A. and I think thats on zero hour contracts and probably not allowed to work anywhere else.
Either way the rot will permeate every corner of the whole industry if this is indeed true.

Forget it, industry is down the drain. Low pays, normally absolutely no extras, ****ty hotels. That's what you can expect as an average pilot nowadays.
Few around still on owner contracts. Different story, and most owner's I would not even touch with a tire iron
.
Fact is: Selfsponsored is in(still), and nobody is willing to pay that amount extra that you had to pay for your rating.
I personally refuse to pay for any rating, but then you have to accept the downturn. Walking/(Flying) thru your life with only a few ratings, normally older types as selfsponsored is on all the shiny new jets like Falcon, Global, Gulfs. All this selfsponsored guys kill the market, but that's nothing new and will not change so soon.

I don't know but get the feeling that they are paying so much more but the f@@king broker is taking 50% or more!
Good luck to them. I am rated but not interested unless they think about a 150% increase!

I imagine that the truth is a combination of these statements. I laughed at the personal documents they wanted. I would be very wary of sending personal documents until I have a good idea of who is receiving them and in any case, where we are in the discussions.
