Medias Attention
If you have nothing to do then watch the man.... Entertainment with no substance. The Media who gives him too much attention is as well guilty that the BS he is distributing makes alot of waves. So counteract and invite the Media also to a Press Conference held at..... any place you want and you get the same attention as he. IALPA does nót help you, take your destiny in your own hands.

"Pilots are like glorified taxi drivers" "Aer Lingus pilots are like overpaid under worked peacocks" "ideal customers are those with a pulse and a credit card"
That's how much he thinks of his staff and customers!! It's all in the interview. |

I am then forced to take 6 weeks a year hols. Meaning the average working year (due to our roster pattern) means I work 10 months and one week.

FR Pilots...
Did ANYONE ever actually get the £60 application fee back as he seemed to think was standard practice? All I got was a bill for another £25k odd and a base in the middle of !!!!sville :rolleyes: |
To correct a few of you, he said "pilots fly 18 hours a week" never said anything about work!!
|
At a certain stage of the interview Ryan turbridy asks does he know any pilots?
MOL came back with a comment about the only pilot he knows is the head of IALPA only to realise he was sued before and could be again so he changed the subject.. FR pilots the trend in our work has been on a slope for 10 to 15 years why would you think it would get any better. Look at our peers in easy jet they are on envious contracts compared to us ask yourself why? JOIN IALPA ! THE RYANAIR PILOTS UNION ! |
I normally get €80.5 per hour for my 800hrs. But when you factor in the extra (official) report times then I am actually only earning the equivalent of €35 per hour for my total time at the 'office'. http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...lies/sowee.gif |

And when O'leary moves on what then? I would be surprised if his replacement also thinks more of his horses than he does of his own workforce. He is a one man band! Spud FR Pilots... Did ANYONE ever actually get the £60 application fee back as he seemed to think was standard practice? All I got was a bill for another £25k odd and a base in the middle of !!!!sville :rolleyes: Now, where's the thread about what pilots think about Chief Executives? |
Kernow 101 - as well as 45 bef/30 after, you are forgetting the most stressful part(s) of the day, those 25min "rests" (I guess MOL would call them)
Widered - "enviable" is the word you are looking for :rolleyes: Shiver - do you really suggest comparing us (you included ?) with shelf stackers? if so, please F.O. to another website, as you will be in for a bit of abuse here := |

DDee....best post on this thread....take a bow....
|
Its still a mystery to me;
why haven't Ryanair pilots joined IALPA? Why??? |
Kernow, I don't believe your calculations are correct. 1800 hours hours of duty is not possible. |
I knew it! The hats really bother him:)
|
Kernow, I earn €9 an hour in a supermarket, wanna swap?
Shiver. You really should have worked harder at school!
I suppose that you think that the consequences of being hit by a rogue supermarket trolley compare with a bad day at the "office" for a pilot?:confused: |
I sympathise with my fellow professionals at FR.
I use that term loosely.... Because your all taxi drivers driving a complex taxi! Lol His terminology of calling pilots that doesn't bother me in the slightest, it's his attitude towards his staff that work within the airline. Can 3000 glorified taxi drivers be more than just 1 ******** in a cheap suit from primark? I don't work in Ireland, work for another UK carrier and member of balpa. I'd urge you all at FR to stand together for once and say no to his cavalier attitude. Awra best lads! And btw....the prospect of flying new shiny 737-800's looks great to me too but I just feel for the guys working for that airline with all the horror stories I hear |
Don't expect any support, with the exception of your group, family, and family pet until you guys organize, and get your message out to the public.
You all are so close. How much more abuse and abasing can you take? What's it going to take before you start, yes I say again, start to gain your self respect as pilots? Organize and organize now! Take back your airline and good luck! |
How about this:
The next time MOL is on RTE ask the interviewer to ask the following; 1. If pilots only fly 18 hours a week then perhaps MOL will sign a statement on air and binding to all flight crews, that when they reach 18 hours flight time in any period of seven days they can go home. 2. Ask him to tell all the viewing public if it is true that all Ryanair flights never fly anywhere in cloud without radar cover. 3. Ask him to read out all the checks we have to do during turnarounds, line by line with a watch running. 4. Ask him to read out some of Ryanair safety reports and safety audits where pilots have missed things like checks and other aircraft. Perhaps some pretty little diagrams illustrating some of the above could be used so that MOL could wave his fingers about all over them, pointing out where black is white and so forth. |
He may be a little s**t, but you FR guys only have yourselves to blame!
You pay him to type rate you, you even pay him to interview you, you effectively pay him to treat you like dirt, you are in a sh1tp1le of your own making. Your only ways out are to leave or to get organised! |
MOL is really such a nice person: he was looking to be so much involved to raise money for charity. It almost made me cry. No doubt that with such a spirit, RYR staff must really be very well looked after. I would believe that a considerable part of his working day is dedicated to help and try to make RYR a better place to live.
