Yes they are, they'll need your cheque book now more than ever ;)

Ryanair is to switch or close nine of the 10 routes it currently operates from Manchester Airport, blaming the airport's refusal to lower its charges.

How do you figure that.
You pay CAE for the training €27500 then Ryanair ask CAE for the money?

Do please explain ?

MVE 17th Aug 2009 19:47

CAE charge for TR - Actual/Normal charge for TR = Ryanair income.:ok:

With the lifting of the UK base freeze does this mean new entry FO's may get a UK base and not posted to a European one. Or does it just apply for people waiting to get back to the Uk from abroad? How many acft will be based at LBA if any?:ok:

MVE you obviously dont understand how ryanair cadets pay for there type rating.
They pay the training company direct.

Yes but do you think that FR "give" the business to CAE for free or could you conceive that an introduction fee might just be paid across.

2 Aircraft at LBA.

Now that the uk bases are unfrozen positions become available all the time due to promotions and transfers. Timing is everything.

Only exception is capt positions at STN, there is a waiting list of approx 1 year for transfer.

Thanks for the useful information and insight you are giving us LAX. Much appreciated.

Mason don't be so naive, next you'll be telling me that Brookfield and RYR are seperate companies and RYR pay the Brookfield pilots the same as real pilots? :ok: and don't profit out of them at all.....;);)

mason 20th Aug 2009 16:20

MVE when you have evidence il listen to it .
I dont listen to speculation.

Mason, it is entirely logical that Ryanair get a kickback for the TR. Ryanair themselves determine the price for the TR and they were responsible for the latest price increase rather that CAE.

If you look at the evidence, it is mostly Ryanair F/O's that are instructing. They are paid by Ryanair (or Brookfield) and so all Ryanair do is hire the sims from CAE. Now Ryanair would be quite foolish to allow CAE pocket €33k odd for the hire of the sims and a few weeks of ground school.

Secondly, Base training is carried out by Ryanair which is part of the TR. Obviously this is also a substantial cost which Ryanair are fully reimbursed for. I've no ideal how much money they make out of running TR courses but from what I've been told CAE make very little out of it.

Mason, best of luck with the job search but you will need to take your head out of the sand to spot the opportunities :ok:

mason 21st Aug 2009 11:47

MVE cheers for the best wishes.
But I already have a job thanks :ok:.

Now back to the original title of the thread.

McBruce 22nd Aug 2009 18:44

The cost you pay covers the safety training at RYR's EMT facilities and base training. Your payment to the training provider, CAE/SAS covers this, so money swaps between the provider and the airline.
