Ryanair Type Rating Course 2010
 

Hello!
I have just been called by Brookfield Aviation and they confirmed that I have passed Ryanair assessment and will be starting Ryanair Type Rating Training on the 28th June in East Midlands. Anyone else got the same news and starting on the same or similar dates? If so, we have set up a new Facebook group called Ryanair Type Rating Course East Midlands 28th June 2010. Please feel free to request to join. Will be great to get to know each other before we start. So, looking forward to see you there! Take care and All the Best!

Hi guys, I'm now starting the Introduction course on the 14th June at EMA, and the Type Rating on the 28th June. Anyone else doing this why don't you join the group on Facebook "Ryanair Type Rating Course East Midlands 14th June 2010". It'd be good to get to know some people before the course kicks off...

So if I understand correctly, you paid for your assessment, Which is a rip off for a start and now over paying for your type rating to possibly not get a job at the end of it :eek:

Cold you not have gone a better route than ryanair?

Not meaning this disrespectfully to you, but are you not working for nothing with Mr O'Fleasing :ugh:

Good luck, I hope you get better jobs elsewhere at the end of it

yes r1flyguy35..congrats on your ability to read...if you name another airline taking on over 200 cadets this year please advise us....oh wait there isnt...

go write a post worth posting elsewhere...

How long is the course?
Normal apartment rental in the UK is 6 months so you might struggle to find a short term let
The local villages are Castle Donington, Kegworth, maybe Loughborough as plenty to rent their due University and on the bus route.
The Travel Lodge at Moto Services Junction 23A of the M1 (a mile from EMA) does rooms for £19 a night if you secure early:\

That sound good, thank you very much for your help. The course will be approx 10 weeks i guess...

Hi guys,

I'm going to start in EMA on the 5th July and the TR on the 19th July in Amsterdam. Anyone else??
Cheers

Hello guys,
May I ask you what is your experience?
Where will you your sim sessions?
Thanks for the info

Congrats
 

Congratulations on making it this far toward the RHS:ok: Hopefully in the medium to long term your decisions will prove wise.

Hi guys. Just a couple of questions. How long was it from application to an interview call by Cae. Did you get a choice of which location for the TR. And can anyone confirm it being true that you no longer have to pay the Tax on the TR costs?

Cheers:ok:

CAE type rating course at East Midlands
 

Hi
Just wondering if you have any details on accommodation near the CAE centre for TR course?

Thanks

Berc

Anybody? :rolleyes:

its completely random about the time from applying to that phone call so you cant really use it as a basis of when u might get the call

You do get a choice of type rating location

And no you dont pay vat on the type rating cost

It costs 27500 euros

Thank you mate! :ok:

No axe to grind with Ryanair here,
but.....ARE you really sure, I don't mean being told by a agency or training provider. I mean in WRITING form The TAX MAN.... its might save a hefty fine or prison later in life.:eek:

The tax man has a nasty habit of biting you if you are not 110% honest to him.:suspect:

Just some advise on a cold Saturday night, waiting for the ash to clear:=
Best of luck:ok:

I can confirm that you do not have to pay vat on the type rating, thats why its 27500K rather than thirty something thousand. Sorted out between you and brookfield when they offer you a place.

But not the tax man and you.... I would tread very carefully

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:ok::ok::ok::ok::ok:

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

So that's okay then:ugh:

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, :eek:, 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. :suspect:.
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

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?

:)

Congrats to those who have been admitted to the TQ ! As for me , I recently gained my CPL/ME/IR , and started off doing my MCC course last thursday .
Regarding RYR selection phases : what to expect in terms of theoretical knowledge ? Anyone some exampl questions of interviews or written tests ?
Hoping to join all of u at RYR some day ...

thanks ,

o-t-b

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.

:)

Calm down son, if you getting this stressed about someone who you dont even know then i would love to see ya a couple of weeks into the TR!

Airbusfreak,
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:E

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

@airbus freak...You really dont have a clue what your talking about!! :=



:)

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:ok:!!!

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!
