I've stayed at Ladygate Guest House quite a bit and it's clean and quiet. It's in Diseworth, a couple of miles from EMA.

Likewise, the travel lodge is £19 provided you book at least 21 days in advanced. I think the Holiday Inn Express may do some sort of crew rate too; worth asking.

Good luck.

The Thistle on the airport has great crew rates. I think £37 including breakfast, parking and internet & it's a short walk to the training centre. Give them a call. You may need to show them an FR ID but you get that on your 1st week so you can show it by the time you have to pay the bill. Give them a call. See what they say.

Just to make CRYSTAL CLEAR here, remember to print off this thread, SO when the TAX MAN asks, and he will ask be sure of that, you can say" But according to this thread on PPrune and Aslan1982 and 767200ER, you do not have to pay VAT on your training costs". That should do.

OR you can check with the TAX Authorities yourselves just in case.

But of course you know sooooooooo much better than a experienced jet jockey, or a a bloody good accountant or anybody else involved in this industry and might just might know blah blah blah blah blah blah etc....

Hope you like prison food, kiddies

Exclamation

This thread is for a very specific reason, if it doesn't apply to you, don't waste your own time, your 2 penny bit is just that. Keep it to yourself. Nobody here needed your oppinion when they started training, about which school to go to or how to pay or how to fly, we've all gotten as far as we have of our own judgement and hey, we're still alive. If i've got my command on a 737 NG by my 25th birthday, i'm not going to stop and think... jhee, i really need some advice on life... let me go and ask the boys and girls on pprune.

Nobody cares, not even a little bit.

The Tax regulations have changed in the Netherlands

As long as you have a vat number, which you will have because you set up a company

you do not need to pay the 19% VAT

Previously you paid it and then claimed it back

So either way you dont pay VAT

Please explain your concerns Mr Cortina. I'm not having a go; just interested in hearing your reasoning.

Nice question Mike,

Okay I have no issues or affiliation with Ryanair, Brookfield or their accountants, neither any countries Tax men.

My concern is simply this, I am old enough to be most of the posters dad, , having lived in the real world for a long time, being self employed for many years before coming in to aviation, I have seen what the tax man can do.
To me it seems crazy that anyone would risk everything they have strived hard for to save a few thousand Euros.
It makes perfect common sense to check everything with the tax man and to get it in writing. If people feel that a posting on Pprune is going to save them, then they are mistaken.

I have no idea about the VAT status of Type Ratings, but I could have a good guess, why should Ryanair cadets be any different than anyone else?

Just trying to help, while waiting for the ash to scatter. .
I will not bother again.

I think that the advice given by Ford Cortina is sound and should be listened to. Tax law is complex enough when dealing with your home country, but combining it with income from Ireland, pensions, VAT returns, etc it gets extremly complicated. I doubt there are many people on here who can honestly state that they fully understand the tax system.

The advice I was given, and that which I will give to anyone in a similar position, is to seek as much assistance from the professionals as possible, be it financial advice, tax advice in both Ireland and the UK (or wherever you are from) and start looking to the future. I personally don't want to be in a postion in several years time where the tax man starts looking back at my history and decides that I owe money I simply havn't got! There is a very fine line between tax planning and tax evasion, and I do not wish to cross it. Prudent planning is the way forward, and if you are armed with all the information then you (hopefully) won't get a shock in a few years time.

Good luck with the type rating folks

Smile Accomodation Question, Nothing else

Where are guys staying when they have the week in east midlands? i have the choice of either starting on the 12th July (TR at east midlands) or the 5th July (TR in amsterdam)
I'd rather start sooner but just wondering where the best place to stay will be?

767200,
Thats the very reason I don't allow loved ones on ryanair, because people like you become captains with very low experience.

If you all pass the TR well done, but 27500 euros is a tad steep.I wonder how much of that is profiteering from your shiney jet fixation.

ford cortina no tax you should go away and look up the laws before you sprout rubbish about tax men here?
a. i guarantee you dont know what country the tax people used to pay even goes through.
b. i guarantee you dont even know what country ryanair pilots pay tax in.

on another note that guy up there who says i hope ye get better jobs at end of it, im sorry you failed the ryanair assessment to all the other guys WELL DONE..

Fade to Grey

Like i said, if this thread does not apply to you p*ss off, if your loved ones don't fly ryanair, i don't care, i'm still going to fly their aeroplanes, safely, efficiently, and you know nothing about my flying skill so you cannot and therefore should not comment on it. If ANYONE could join the company, EVERYONE would. Take the assesment, i bet you fail, on the grounds that you would be hopeless in a multi crew environment, because you are judge mental and have preconcieved ideas about people that are completely unfounded. YOU sir, would be a risk to flight safety.

767200ER,

Well said sir.

fade to grey,

I'm sure your remarks would differ had you been onboard a certain blue and yellow 737 that wandered a tad close to a few birds near a certain Italian city.

Airbusfreak,

b. i guarantee you dont even know what country ryanair pilots pay tax in.
In answer to both your questions, No I have no idea. If you had bothered to read what I had written, you would see that I did not comment on any one tax system, I generalised what Tax men are like. They do not change in any country of the world, they all can squeeze blood from a stone.

Good luck with your TR at Ryanair, you will find the 737-800 is vastly different to a Airbus, maybe you should change your profile name sonny.

As informed by 767200ER I will P@@soff, as you all know so much more than me.
One thing though boys, could you please let us know when you will be flying, and what routes etc, so we can avoid you. Thanks in advance

767 - congratulations on earning over £100k by your early twenties to pay for all of this training, with that track record you'll be a skipper within a few years.

Those in RYR (who sometimes read this thread..) will look forward to welcoming you, given how well you come across in these threads There aren't many in each course so i'm sure you'll be easy to spot

fort cortina.... You will find the fort cortina is vastly different from the airbus and even the boeing..... maybe you should change your profile name SON-Y!!!

And I would be more worried why you feel the need to avoid ryanair routes?!Are you suggesting ryr are unsafe again? back that up with facts!
