Never let facts get in the way of having a Ryanair Bash!
Here is a quote from the report;
"During his time on duty, he considered that the traffic was light to medium. He also confirmed that there were no visitors during the time of the incident and that he had not been distracted by any telephone calls"
So how did someone call this thred ..."due to distracted controller"
The waffle in the report about some NATS operatives thinking that this operator has a reputation for "expeditious" movement on the ground is no more than that - waffle and has no place in a factual report.
The average speed of the aircraft as calculated from factual evidence is one thing......but unless there is hard evidence that this happens at times other than when asked for by ATC then the AAIB should not get involved in mud slinging.
