RYR possible engine failure at BCN
Ryanair FR6874 has just made an immediate return to BCN due to apparent engine failure.
Seemed to depart off 25L and then fly a left hand downwind to land 25R. Squawking 7700

Sounds like the crew did what they were trained for and paid to do as crews around the world do well whenever this happens. Not that the truth will stop the Ryanair bashers, especially here in Ireland.

The birds weren't the only things striking.

Ryanair ? Bird Strike ? Oh yes, they had one of those in Ciampino once didn't they . . . . funny though that no report can be found on the website of the Italian accident investigators . . . however, I see in their inflight magazine they have an "unblemished safety record". . .so , I guess I just imagined it.
Ryanair bashing ? nope, assuredly not (I use them several times a month as a fare paying passenger) but, there are quite probably some safety lessons from the untraceable CIA accident that the rest of the aviation world could learn from.

Careful Capt play station.
The CIA accident was an unfortunate event that was exceptionally handled by a very well trained crew. The Captain did a great job landing as well as he did!

It says more about the impenetrable bureaucracy of the Italians than anything else as far as I can see.
ICAO? Accident reports? EASA? Italy ignores them all. Don't try asking for a visual either...
