A and C

Not only are you very wrong, you are actually not being very truthful.

I KNOW how poorly the jeppesen plates in RYR, particularly in STN, have been kept. Most airlines ( my new one included) get their entire jeppesen kits update every fortnight by bag change. This is done by a specialist company who make a reasonable charge for something that is of high SAFETY value.

Unfortunately, MOL has quite openly demonstrated his distain for spending money on safety related matters, and it is now all coming home to roost.

The IAA inspector who raised this issue has recently joined the authority. I expect this is just the first shot across the RYR bows to get their act together.

As an aside, I understand RYR aircraft, particularly around the London Zone) have taken to flying very slowly ( 240kts at 20,000 I heard them tell a surprised controller the other day). Industrial action perhaps?
