I'm with twinaisle on this one.
Ryanair or not, this is gutter journalism at it's absolute lowest and is completely beyond contempt. Whichever 'aviation expert' controbuted to this wants stringing up as well.
Whatever you think about Ryanair, this could easily be done to ANY airline in this country if it was edited cleverly enough. I know that some people on these boards rate Ryanair as the lowest of the low but at the end of the day people don't have to work for them. There are plenty of other airlines out there recruiting at the minute. I have some good friends at Ryanair who are bloody good pilots and are perfectly happy.
Can anyone who flies for a loco/no frills carrier honestly say that they are not working 850-900hrs a year? I know I can't...and what's more, if this is the absolute hardest I have to work in my career then I can't complain.
I don't really have an opinion one way or the other on MOL or Ryanair but I hope he takes 'Dispatches' to the cleaners. It's patenly grasping at straws filling an uneducated public's mind with utter rubbish. There may well be some issues at Ryanair (although the 'evidence' presented by the TV company does not hint at any) but this kind of rubbish is doing nothing to air them in the correct way.
Looserivets,
How the bloody blue blazes did a camera crew, despite a camera being small enough to be worn in the lapel, get their equipment through security?
...and how could CC supposedly carrying out their duties possibly be filiming. The production company's assertions on this score don't really cut the mustard in my opinion.
