I have to say I'm a bit puzzled about the continual gripes concerning RYR & ATC. I've worked them since the first day they operated from Prestwick & in all that time I've never had to reposition or send around a RYR plane because they weren't doing what they were told. Neither have I had any grief when told they can't have a straight in 31 or when I give them a rotten slot.
Before anyone says I've been lucky, just remember in this job you make your own luck ;-)
Mind you, I don't work for NATS
