I feel Mol's rants must be quite grating to some of RYR's piloting staff, and I appreciate that his views are not necessarily their view. Any talk of retribution on this thread is just hot air.

I personally would find it impossible to levy any kind of penalty against a customer that has displayed a such a high standard of cooperation over the years.

When I first checked out as a tower ATCO, they were flying the B732. Those pilots threw those a/c on and off our rwy with military style; on/off no messing. It made those first tentative months a lot easier for me.

The B738 is a more cumbersome beast, and the Aer Arran ATR now wears the crown for best expeditious departure, but I'll never forget those early years.
