Not sure if you are refering to the Rome or Beauvais incidents but in both cases surely all the FO's did was sit there and let a serious situation develop. It should never get to this and intervention was called for a lot earlier. Sitting there while the aircraft descends to 150ft and then almost hits the tower in a half assed GA (yes this happened) is not something an FO is paid for! But then again this is Ryanair so maybe I'm wrong!!
