First of all, I would like to offer my deepest thanks and gratitude to all of you who have responded to my original question.
I am very grateful and fortunate to have multiple professional pilots take the time and answer my questions.
Secondly, I now think I have the answer to my question:
1. The landing I experienced, was firmer than usual - but still within the normal operating requirements. Albeit, slightly unpleasant.
2. Landings which float down a runway are both unsafe and not recommended for an arrival.
3. Touching down in the right spot of the runway - is paramount.
4. Ryanair are very good airline, and I have had very good experiences with them, they have brought me, my siblings, and family and friends - all around Europe safely.
I know that the next time I am on a landing plane - I am safe, regardless of the touchdown.
I know that landings won't be completely silent nor feather soft.
However, some landings are soft, but safe! I know I have experienced these.
Once again, thank you for answering my questions and I would like to apologize to anyone I have offended.
I would be very grateful perhaps, if the discussion can be moved onto the landing gear itself?
I just have these questions:
1. How are they tested?
2. What can they take?
3. How long they last for and how often parts need changing?
Once again, thank you for you're continued help.
Best Regards,
Nikolai
