Ahhhh Leo, on another planet as usual..

Your enlightened accusation of the Flight editorial department makes me laugh.....they are hardly a publication that have a history of courting controversy

As is stands, it is a monument to unfair and misrepresentation journalism from a man who is supposed to know much better. Learmont has had unprecedented access to Ryanair, a fact he conveniently neglects to mention. He has been invited as a guest to the very heart of the operation, poked his head under ever skirt, looked under every rug, and is even to attend our final Flight Safety Roadshow in Liverpool later this month, and this is the sort of tawdry, misleading hack journalism that results. Other boardrooms beware!
It is, of course, perfectly fair and reasonable to closely examine these events. It is appropriate to view them within the context of a rapidly expanding airline involved in the LoCo business operating around 1000 flights every day. That’s a lot of flights since July 2005, Mr. Learmont, and you’re writing about four approach events. Four out of many hundreds of thousands!
And your point? he IS a journalist

It is a vulgar and offensive notion unbefitting a publication with the reputation of Flight International.
Or it is a product of the skirt lifting, and unprecedented access shown to Mr Learmont that you seem to be at such pains to point out

Mr. Fine, there IS no such atmosphere.
Oh Hail Caesar! you have spoken, your word is law.....
