    LOL, wouldn't Michael O'Leary love that. If he could get away with it he would. As it is both pilots and cabin crew have to pay for their own training. It's a bit cheaper to be cabin crew though.

    Interesting reading that...dunno how I have not read that before


    Ryanair would be my only option if I wanted to attempt to live at home in Limerick (shannon based) even though they'd probably end up moving me elsewhere just as I buy a house and settle down :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    If I ever get the training completed I might spend a few years in the US or with a certain bizjet operator....

    Simple VFR-only PPL for me, and my progression has come to a screeching halt due to the cost of flying here in Silicon Valley. Haven't even certified for High-Performance yet. Eventually wish to do the full IFR/Comm/CFI. Army should pay for a fair part of that, and I have to say, the CFI sounds like a great retirement gig. (At least, it was for my instructor)
