Ryanair Landing Techniques

As a former military and light aircraft pilot, and now a glider pilot, I have always wondered about Ryanair landings - usually no flare, just hit the runway more like a carrier landing. I thought I had just been unlucky (after one arrival at Bournemouth I asked the cabin crew if there would be a "heavy landing" check). Talking to friends today and several agreed that Ryanair landings always seemed firmer than those experienced with other airlines. Views?...
