Further to Jetlegs post Ryanair state in their letters that they respect a pilots right to not fly if they are fatigued. So the present court case where a pilot was suspended for not flying two extra sectors because he was fatigued is a figment of our imagination then?

They can not give out drinks because the bar is sealed on the ground and can not be opened? That is for alcoholic drinks. What about soft drinks, or even bottled water?

Their answers are just too glib. Those of us who fly the 737 on shorthaul low cost turnrounds know that the answers might fool someone who doesn't know but are just an embarassment to those who do know.

For sure other low cost airlines (e.g. easyJet) also have short turnrounds and passenger problems, you only have to watch their tv programme, but Ryanair really take the p*ss.
