Top Jock,
you miss the point. There are quite obviously more incidents occurring with ryanair than similar size airlines, for example Easyjet. Aside from the recent spate of off tarmac excursions, there have been a lot of very serious incidents in the air over the last couple of years, to name but a few:
Knock
Cork
Beauvais
Ciampino
Skavsta
The below min landings at STN
I won't go into detail but you know what happened. How you can say that this is normal and industry standard is beyond me. It is a simple fact that, touch wood, other airlines are not having the same number of incidents as ryanair.
And stop trying to blame poor airports, it's incumbent upon the airline the structure the operation appropriate to the conditions.
