Very slight thread-drift here. Shocking!!
 
I had a fruit-juice with an FR f/o last week near BHX and showed him my payslip from March 1989. (Newly appointed F27 f/o... and the company paid for the TR too) Net take-home pay £1218.44 and no loans or bond to repay.

That was over 20 years ago guys...

Progress?

Cheers anyway. bm.

Are you mental?
 
I hope the worrying proportion of people who appeared to take the OP in any way seriously have better skill interpreting the WX radar than they do the trolls.

Thanks - I needed that this weekend! One possibility (although it may take a bit longer to raise the cash) is to find somewhere that needs "fluid" donations? I believe the going rate is £25...

But you can only donate a few times otherwise there would be some risks in concentrating the gene pool. So, max funds raised would be under a few hundred quid.

Cheers

and just as long as those that took the original post seriously don't contribute their genes, the risks to the gene pool might just be too great:p

madlandrover,
Do you know exactly what's involved? Apart from any thing, quite err invasive STD checks and tests..
It's about £25 a shot up to a specific quantity..

Distributing and diluting the gene pool
 
Whirlygig - a solution to this issue could be to combine a few 300 mile navex.s around the country, with deposits at each stop. As an aside, you could use the receipts as proof of travel to the CAA when applying for the CPL. Just a thought.

Torque Tonight 7th Feb 2010 22:44

Some people are just so damn thick that they really ought to be euthanazed for the good of society, and I'm talking about those that took the original post seriously here, not the originial poster himself (although I have a sneaking feeling that he too may be clinically stupid). Now... everyone back on the Sunshine Bus!

BoeingMEL - you carry around with you payslips from 1989 and show them to people who are just trying to have a quiet drink? You must be a riot at parties.:ok:

madlandrover 8th Feb 2010 11:39

I gather there are also product quality issues if too many donations are made - much like pay to fly FOs :E

BoeingMEL 8th Feb 2010 11:41

No Torque...
 
.... I dug out the payslip because my FR friend didn't believe what I told him 2 weeks before... :bored:

Funniest Ryanair post I've read!

lpokijuhyt 8th Feb 2010 12:15

Maybe after I upgrade and make the big bucks, I can get some decent plastic surgery to cover up my "First Officer tattoo"

Hilarious thread. Love it.

The original poster is offering a "kidney transplant" and around half of the "serious" posters have already had a "sense of humour transplant".

Genius.

It will probably be an added selling point at the ryr/ezy interview. I will pay for my type rating, sacrifice my rights as a permenant employee by being a contractor AND i'm also lighter as i only have one kidney therefore less fuel burn!!
I wonder is this what Cor meant by flexibilty, the willingness to sacrifise body parts.

It's all about bigger picture stuff chaps:ok:

luvly jubbly 8th Feb 2010 13:41

But you guys don't seem to understand.... The pilot shortage IS coming... Oxford told me it would, in 1999:mad:

PS. I have 5000hr TT, B737/B757/B767 worldwide ACMI & ETOPS experienced pilot. Take home pay in Jan 2010 = £257.20
(Jobseekers allowance):ouch:

Very few opportunities for FOs due to Cadets being hired instead.... Keep up the laughs on here boys. It's the only thing keeping me going right now!

luvly jubly: Do you not have a substantial amount of PIC time in any of the jets you listed? If that is the case, then quite correct...you are ****** and it will be difficult to gain employment ever again because you will have to take a backseat to the cadet. The cadet is definately more attractive financially to the TRTO, are they not? High time FO's are about as attractive as Flight Engineers in today's world.

irishpilot1990 8th Feb 2010 17:10

This is the reason this forum is going down the tube....
Moderators have a bit of cop on and take this :mad: pointless threads off,

blackred1443 8th Feb 2010 17:55

Thats how alot of people feel about the ryr/ezy pay to fly threads irishpilot.If you don't like it son, don't read it.

A mate of mine who is a capt in ryr told me today that due to the ryr cadet 'zero to hero' for 34k schemes, cadet now stands for Cash Available Donor for Each Type rating:}

fischerflyer 8th Feb 2010 18:49

luvly jubbly: How many kidneys do you have?

luvly jubbly 8th Feb 2010 19:56
