female pilot in Ryanair
Does anyboby know about the politics of selection of Cadet Ryanair.
I was told that the girls are quite often put out the selection even if they are quite prepared? right or not
What about the age . I was told that they dont consider you if you are more than 30 . is that right . I'm 30 now and I have just finished all the exams, I would think to go to SAA o CAE for MCC course . and then Do I have a chance to enter in Ryanair.

Interviews, jobs & sponsorship - PPRuNe Forums Just do search and you will find ALL the answers.This area is all about people complaining about what they (don't) earn at RYR not so much how to get in but more how to get out. Specially since they can now apply at BA
Maybe an interesting point: try to find out how many female pilots there are in RYR vs any other airline in the UK or Ire... Me thinks MOL doesnt like ladies drive his shinny boytoys.... A little birdie once told me this was even unofficial policy..

Ryanair is one of the few companies that doesn't have a female on the bored of directors, this will go someway to explaining their views. apparently they get pregnant and it causes all manors of problems for them!

I have a ZERO interest in changing to a Ryanair contract, I am much better off on the old BRK contract thanks
Did enjoy reading through the latest pilot publication on sqrewdock today saying how there is no shortage of pilots and spares for standbys etc, basically just saying your still fu&&ed so don't ask for anything, they do make us feel so wanted!, so the fact I have flown guys to other bases to cover flights where they have no captain or F/O on a good few occasions recently is just normal operations is it? and the F/O who quit because he was sick of been treated like sh&& and was phoned within an hour and asked to stay in exchange for a base transfer was also just a figment of my imagination.
Head/Sand?

Would it be too much to hope this memo can be discussed by actual Ryanair pilots on Repa? Rather than have it debated across pprune with the usual helpful input from everyone from other pilots to PPL holders and trolls!

Perhaps its 60 serving notice....440, left without giving notice...
Yes the memo cracked me up too..it always makes me wonder, if they think were dumb enough to buy the PR, should we really be flying the public around in Boeing's best seller ?

Thank God for another lunatic propaganda memo - I was starting to think I'd seen my last one back in April with the fictional 3% pay rise. As I'm currently one of the 'less than 60' serving my notice, the publication of some more of this crap only confirms that I've made the right decision to no longer be a part of the most embarrassing airline in recent history (in fact, I'd rather be associated with Garuda than Ryanair).
You've got to laugh though. They really expect us to believe that pay increases (?) have eaten into profits. The pass rate for command upgrades is suddenly 80%? (About double the norm). More than 30 ex-Ryanair pilots have applied to return but will not be rehired? Neglecting to mention that the company has made c. 400 million while expecting its employees to take unpaid leave this winter.
Able to cover the summer roster - really? Then why all the desperate requests asking me to work a day off and why cancel flights due to lack of crew?
'Ryanair is not recruiting any Direct Entry Captains'. That's because they couldn't get any the last time they advertised for them.
Another ludicrous reference to contract agencies in a continued pretence that Brookfield pilots are 'service providers' and not employees.
I just feel sorry for Peter Bellew having to put his name to another of O'Brien's pathetic excretions. What a bunch of over-promoted, talentless clowns.

Adolf hucker;
couldn't agree more. Totally embarrassed working for these, no other word for it, liars. I am too leaving one of the 400 'service providers' leaving to join the other 60 Ryanair boys at better pastures.
Everyday same conversation at work....it is reality they cannot sustain the levels leaving. No chance. So many 2000 hour FOs all lined up for EK, once they have the hours for flying there they are off. BA are taking in more and more too.
They can sit behind their lies and post as much crap as they like. Good to see the guys who fly the thing are smart enough to figure out their pathetic buisness protocol.
Join REPA those who are leaving. More numbers the better, for the good guys and girls who can't leave.
