X-Centric - I've tried a few other airlines. You wouldn't have a clue about that but you pre-judge that I have not, thus demonstrating YOUR closed attitude to the things around you. Perhaps you have NOT operated this aircraft with other airlines and therefore cannot make the comparison but I surely can. As it happens my opinion is that Ryanair have a very good training department but anyone who believes that the line trainers know more than "Mr Boeing himself" is, to be frank, completely deluded! I can site examples of trainers of long standing here who couldn't create airports in the supplementary Nav data page, hadn't a clue what those little white lights were on the VHF header units (which you fortunately see quite rarely) oh and yes you may take a closer look at them yourself next time you're on the flight deck to see which ones I'm referring to...... the list is there my friend! Don't get me wrong, few people (least of all me) know all there is to know but you seem to be of the opinion that the "trainers" know it all....... Sad reflection on you eh?
