"Apart from here who have you contacted about this? Contact the IAA and ask them"
Oh yes, I did that. Hear the silence? That's me waiting for their return call.
Incidentally, when I went on the IAA website I noticed the Ryanair plane (there's one for each carrier) illustrating the safety pages has City of Nykoping written on it, as had the one used on our flight into Limoges.

I also contacted the BEA. By way of a reply I received some traditional French noble sentiment followed by a "what is your interest?" attitude. Eh, like I said, Madame, I WAS ON THE PLANE!
Straight answers to straight questions (in writing) were not on the menu. However, I will get back onto them and quote the chapter and verse above.
