Ryanair Line Training

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows what the current waiting time is for commencement of line training after completion of the type rating (both for captains and FO's).

Cheers

F/O: 2-3 weeks. Usually they plan the first LT flight just before you are due for recurrent sim, which is 21 days after base training.

There is no Type Rating Course for DEC in Ryanair. Only for Cadets.

DEC run only OCC and they do not wait more then week to start line training. Mostly one week wait is necessary due to STN being only base for DEC line training. Few, very few went to DUB.

Cadets wait up to three weeks due to priority for DEC. Also Cadets go to many diferent bases for line training, but waiting time is longer.

Ryanair did take some non rated DEC this year with a 5 year bond attached. Needs must.

Have the guys from the OCC started line training or are they still waiting?

Cheers

We had a direct entry Captain jump seating this week. He is just about to start line training, was not type rated and said that the rating cost was being deducted at 5 euros per hour.

Will RYR ever validate ICAO ATPL's again? Or is the pool of JAA licenced too large at the moment?

Not sure the pool of JAA licence holders is too large, but once EASA kicks in I'm not sure you'll even be able to validate it....

Waiting time for CU line training is nothing. Max normal 4 days off, which you need after the sim. Unable to tell you waiting time for FO's....

I took a Cadet on the jumpseat this week that in 4 weeks had only done around 14 sectors and was not even safety pilot released yet, was paying for accommodation and commuting to different bases during this time

lean christmas for him I feel

I think "chance" is the word for line training... It all depends where you are based, I did roughly 40 sectors in 3 weeks (in November), another 30ish planned in December with a non-regular roster 3on/3off/2on/2off/1on/5off/4on etc... All of them in the same base. Now some guys from my TR course are having a lot of standbys (Dublin mostly), flying twice a week if lucky.

I was told my left seat line training which starts in a week's time could be out of DUB and/or STN. Xmas; the timing sucks.

MikeHotel,

Did you have to float between training bases (DUB, STN, EMA) in order to slot in to the LTC's roster?

No speed, if you are talking about cadet training, then any base can be used for that. Each base has LTC's based there, and can do it along with the final check. For upgrade training, you can only train in Dub, STN, BGY and maybe Hahn although not 100% on that one.
