Ryan International

[JJET44]

Anyone like to shed some light on why Ryan International is looking to hire 747 and 777 Standards Captains?

Where did you see this info?

 

[CaptSeth]

It's on 350. Seems like a ballsy move, 777's and 744's. I wonder what's going on over there.

It's also on the Ryan website.

Hense the term "shed some light". I can speculate too!

Thats the word around the company.

Seems like a large expansion in wide bodies coinciding with a drawdown in Iraq? I didnt see anything about 747s on their website though

Anyone apply and get a response from Ryan concerning the 777 FO positions?

WOW, 1000 hrs time in type for an FO slot! I guess they need someone to babysit the non-experienced, company senior Captains.

If you say so.

I'd like to know who has 1000 in type that wants this. I figure if you have that kind of time you'd be a senior FO at whatever carrier you're at and would give up A LOT to start over at Ryan. Maybe there's one or two, and that's all they need.

 

[CaptSeth]

There are probably a bunch of guys in the M.E. that are ready to come home.

This is what i'm thinking.

 

[bigsky]

Unless their pay scale has changed a bunch I don't foresee a max exodus from any large carrier like Emirates. Then again money is not everything.

Who are most of the Capts here? Were they ex Delta pilots who retired early before the BK? What are the schedules like at Ryan? Do most people commute to Rockford? Are the pilots happy? Thanks.

Are the pilots happy?

That's funny.

That's funny.

How about content? Sublime?
