Hey Guys,

Can anyone share intel regarding Ryanair's TR run by CAE? My questions are:
Do they prefer integrated training or modular? The flight school I want to join provides 170 flight hours and appr. 20 hrs simulator in integrated and appr. 220 hrs in the modular version. Trying to figure out which one fits better Ryanair's expectations.
Do they tend to reject candidates who did not pass all ATPL exams at first?
Is there a waiting list before and/or after doing the TR?
Once a cadet completes the type rating, is Ryanair assigning him/her to a base according to their preference or can you end up at your home base or preferred base?
Any info about how the bond is being deducted over the first five years and what are the current salaries offered to cadets joining after this program?

I know that some of these questions were touched earlier, but there's a lot of contradicting info out there, so I hope to hear about the most recent experiences.

Thanks, folks!

You haven't started your training yet and you are nearly asking for a copy of the employment contract. If I were you, I would start the training first, do your best to complete it as best as you can and then ask the questions.

Unless you are working for the Pink competitor (Hungary) and you are just looking for info then sorry.

Hi guys, to all new people joining RYR with the bonded contract, specially UK, be aware that the contract that they are offering at the moment after Line Training, it is not what they will offer you in the emails.
Myself and my whole TR course were told at HQ during wings ceremony that the Line training contract of 21K per year, 16.04 pounds SBH (6 months) ends when you get line check and then you get a FO contract. Now we all finished LT and we have been told that we get the new contract when the 6 months ends. Which means you spend 2-3 months working on the line getting paid like training.
The other thing is that you won't get the FO contract that they promise on the emails, you'll get a Second Officer contract, which in the UK is 39K and 5 pounds SBH.
Just to create awareness of this SCAM, because I have no other words to describe it.

^^ Whatever title they're giving to you...be it SO, JFO, FO or whatever:
The FAQs told us to expect a JFO salary from 1st Line Check to 15ooh; when in fact you get an SO salary to 5ooh, thereafter (J)FO to 15oo, thereafter SFO salary to Captain. So after your first Line Check expect to be on your training salary for quite a while and thereafter on a SO salary.

First line check or after the 6 months training contract? As far as I know it's after the 6 months training contract and not the first line check.

Not sure why you say that this is a SCAM when in fact you are a second officer up to 500h (you should have about 300 when you finish your training)
You should tell the full story and not only what's convenient to you. Never heard of anyone getting an FO contract after training. You probably mean JFO which is a different thing!

"Fully checked out" is the exact wording.
