Ryanair Fast Track Command - Europe
https://careers.ryanair.com/search/#job/b2e8e
Ryanair have a fantastic and Unique opportunity for Non-Type Rated First Officers to join our new Southern Italy and Sicily Fast Track Command Programme - If you have over 2100 hours on a jet above 30 tonnes with a minimum of 1000 hours multi-crew experience and the drive to become a Ryanair Captain in Poland, then we would love to hear from you!
We are looking to hire First Officers for our bases in Southern Italy and Sicily. Poland and Germany.
Assuming it may take 18 months to 2 years from joining to get a command (and assuming one meets the required standards!), I would appreciate what is the actual net take home as an FO in the European bases? There is no mention of type rating costs so I guess it would be bonded.
All answers appreciated.

I am fascinated by the hour requirement. Since it's rounded to the nearest hundred I am curious how long it'll take till released LHS. Are they trying to optimize the joining to be ready by XXXX?

In Ryanair's defence MCDU... (not a sentence I would ever have imagined saying) that was my editing, not their fault! 
As for the 2100 hour requirement I would imagine it is simple maths, 2100 + 900 hours (or 12 months) = 3000 hours for command

MOL in the news today claiming UK based captains eaming £218k a year and posting pictures of payslips. Is there any truth to this? At that salary it would make them some of the highest paid pilots in the UK. What are the current salary deatails for a full time UK based captain on a Ryan Air contract? I am guessing MOL is trying his best to drum up public sympathy but can he really get away with lies and threats on this scale.

Firstly the ‘payslip’ if you can call it that shown, was showing a gross figure anyway. Regardless, as a Ryanair Captain last year my P60 reads a total earning of £115,000. About £103,000 less than the chief pilots payslip shown.
I get that £115,000 (or more) at easyJet now. The only difference is loss of licence insurance, uniforms, medical, car parking, food and water (YES WATER) at work, ID’s etc etc are paid for by EasyJet and given to me in ADDITION to my salary. In Ryanair I’d only get the above if I paid for them myself out of my own salary.
I hope all the crews in Dublin just leave and go to Norwegian.
