C'mon guys you know I just like pulling your chains, just ignore me, I like venting off sometime and this is the best place to do it. I suppose I'm just upset at the demise of this once proud industry of ours.
While I am here a lot of you scoffed about my "sleeping in cars" comment, well it has reared its head in another thread http://www.pprune.org/professional-p...ant-pilot.html here. I have no connection to this thread or influence over it, I just happened to stumble over it and thought it was a bit coincidental.
Cheers
Smith

Be prepared to wait for a loooong time
. I applied in October 2009 but haven't heard of them since. I also heard stories of people being called after one year

hmmmm..
Im confused, on the CAE and BFSAA websites the type rating training is quoted at E27000 or E28000 (euros, dont know how to get it on my keyboard)...
On this thread all the talk is of 34000 or 33000 euros, whats the difference, am I missing somthing?

it's not only the TR, you also have to take into account living expenses (room, food, transportation) and also things like airport ID, uniform for a few months (during TR and first couple of months before you fly without safety pilot).

If you go through CAE's courses at Amsterdam or East Midlands you pay €32,725. This includes VAT at 19% = €5,225 which you will get back about 6 weeks after you finish your type rating. So you end up paying €27,500.

Got an interview with Ryan air next month. Anyone got any feedback on what sort of technical questions they could throw at me.
Thanks
Thanks
When did you send your CV or in other words for how long have you been waiting for the call?

update: vat is no longer payable in east midlands or Amsterdam now so the price you pay is 27500, laws have changed in the Netherlands. That was a nice surprise so now you don't need to pay the vat in the first place

Could someone inform me if it is easier to get hired as cadet if I do the MCC at SAA.
If I go to the SAA website, the say that the preferred way to enter the Ryanair type qualification program is through the Ryanair MCC course.
