Oh dear :sad:

Ireland - the Liberia of the aviation World?

That's quite an far fetched rumour though isn't it?

Many thought NAS was the light at the end of the tunnel.....
The beginning of the end instead.

Yes Cont, it is, but anything is possible. It would make sense, as O'Leary can't get his grubby little mitts on any new aircraft until 2016. However, I feel it is just a rumour, but what is very disturbing, is the further dilution of the Pilot group, away from the Scandinavian core. It is so, so important that ALL Pilots join their local union, and then unify as a group.

Cont, there is no rumour involved here, that is straight from the company website . . .where do YOU think it is going ? I can already see the "train crash in slow motion" :=





Edited to say, 737Jockeys nightmare is the worst case scenario, but the reality IS . . . Ryanair mgmt have been recruited to NAI (well.our C.P. this last few years is ex FR anyhow . . . . . . ) so, we have employed a number of well known & much loved figures recently (it seems , thank F, not the one who had his own thread - that I was "removed" from ) & I am guessing they were not brought on board for their forward thinking/employee friendly manner. . . neither, I am sad to report, were they sourced for any verifiable expertise/skills other than sh***++g on people & causing the maximum discord between employee/employer.

All in my humble opinion of course.

Hi,

I did the online assessment for type rated FO about 1 month and a half ago but no answer for the moment. Anybody know if they are calling or emailing Type Rating people for the interview. I´ve seen that for the moment they are calling non type people.

wrong, they are calling the most experienced guys with hours on type. Of course they start calling from the top of the list :rolleyes:
me too, waiting for the call, 2500tt, 600 on type

neither like you said, calling also guys fresh from cpl skill test about 230 hrs.
please stop presuming the way how they are calling, too much complicated for "human beings" like us:ok:

Any type rated FO has been called?

I am not supposing, I am saying what I really know and I will tell you something more. In the company in which I was working there are 3 rated guys. All of them received the "no thanks" email, and their experience is around 500tt with 300on type.
So the low experienced Trated guys are out.

Which is not surprising as the NAS advertisement states that the company requires EXPERIENCED First Officers with a minimum of 1,500 hours total time and 500 hours on type!

They're not 'out' as they were never 'in'.

I can confirm on my Parc contract that this is the current pay for the top bracket FOs.

A am not sure what the older rate was on ARPI or Parc.

€8/ph sector for FOs.

Regards

That was /is the current rate for all 3 agencies.

The €800 less rumour was €800 less than that figure.

Maybe, this is what will be offered to non TR entrants ?

... so if you have a B737 type rating that has lapsed/expired it would probably be worthwhile renewing?

All other issues regarding recruitment being equal that is (ie you're offered a job!)

But how would that work and how would you know ... ?

It's late - rambling and thinking aloud ...

Three internal upgrade courses planned for autumn. These are for SCAN (core) FO`s though..

Doea anyone have any news? It seems like rumours have slowed down lately

I think it is a natural thing, the expansion has slowed considerably and will stay low during 2015 and start picking up in 2016 again. According to what I've read and heard.

My guess is that they would prefer upgrading core FOs, thus putting them on a contract instead of permanent position. That way they can keep decreasing the costs of the core, and more importantly weaken the power of the union.

There's no deadline ln the website and a few days ago they reposted the ad on Latestpilotjobs

initially it was in october!
